Samoa's Kidney Foundation has received financial support from the Methodist Church.

It's the second financial assistance from the same organization after their first donation of about 50,000 US dollars was made last year before the dialysis unit was opened.

The Congregational Christian Church of Samoa and several other local churches have also made a similar donations.

The money will help the ongoing treatment of dialysis patients.
