LOKAHI BACK 2 SCHOOL DRIVE
June,2008
The long list of supplies students need to start the school year is taxing on local families who struggle to keep up with the rising costs of life in Hawaii. Our Lokahi Giving Project is pulling together to make sure Hawaii's keiki have the tools they need to succeed in school.
Lokahi and KHON2 are happy to bring back our "Back 2 School" Drive this summer.

Lokahi Helping Former Aloha Employees
By KHON News - May 2, 2008
In keeping with our mission to assist the working gap group, the Lokahi Giving Project is making its Emergency Assistance Fund available to help those who have been hardest hit by hard times in today's economy - for example, those affected by the unexpected and abrupt closing of Aloha Airline's operations.
Based on donations received and funding available, priority will be given to single parent families; families in which both parents have lost their airline jobs; families with major financial challenges such as major surgery, pregnancy, chemotherapy, funerals, etc. which occur above and beyond regular monthly living expenses like rent and utilities.

Lokahi lends a helping hand to those who face a life crisis or emergency situation beyond their control. It not only assists the poorest of the poor, but also the struggling gap group not qualified for assistance by any other programs.
