For the National Hunger and Homeless Awareness month, our agency will be providing the homeless children with a hygiene bag and a meal cards. We are seeking groups, clubs, companies, etc who would like to host a collection.
We are seeking those who can make a commitment to at least 12 bags filled with ALL the supplies needed for the bags. We will be providing 350 homeless children with bags, so everyone truly makes the difference.
We will provide you with the list of items and can make a flier to share if you require. As well those who wish to do an on line /social media fundraiser we can make you a goal chart that is easy to invite your friends and family to make a simple donation and be part of this life changing journey for our homeless children

Description
Project Hawai'i, Inc., is a nonprofit organization run 100% by volunteers to enhance the lives of children living in poverty situations on the islands of Hawai'i. Our public supported charity works year round to provide necessities to children living in substandard housing situations, such as tents on the waters edge, abandon vehicles, and make-shift structures hidden in the bushes and hills.
Our agency provides children with holiday parties, meals and services for all the major holidays including Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Other monthly services include providing emergency support, hygiene, food, clothing and outreach to the children living in homeless situations on 3 of the islands of Hawai'i, the Big Island (Hawai'i), Mau'i and O'ahu.
Project Hawai'i also provides educational and nutritional programs that include after school reading and tutoring programs and our summer camp activities. Children will also receive full back to school support from new backpacks filled with supplies, new outfits, and shoes. We also provide other educational needs throughout the year.
Project Hawai'i Summer Camp has ran for 15 years and won several dozen awards in nutrition and educational support. This program is our largest endevor and evolves year after to year to include even more learning opportunities to our keiki.
