In line with Fiji Day celebrations the chief of Protocol for San Francisco city and the governor’s office in Sacramento Charlotte Schultz declared a Fijian Heritage Day in San Francisco on every October 7 to honour Fiji’s independence.
Schultz highlighted the important contributions of Fijians living in San Francisco in the development of the city's diverse culture and the overall economic growth of the San Francisco Bay Area.
