This year Helping Hands Hawai‘i® celebrates the 25th anniversary of Ready to Learn℠, our school supply program to help prepare keiki from low-income and homeless families for school. Together with platinum sponsors Honolulu Cookie Company and American Savings Bank, Helping Hands Hawai‘i®‘s annual school supply drive will run from May 1 to July 31, and we need your help!
Our goal is to ensure Hawaii’s youth have the necessary tools to be successful in the classroom despite their family’s financial challenges, and we want to help at least 1,500 students by providing them with the educational supplies they need to learn.
Help us provide the tools our keiki need to have a safe and productive school year. We encourage monetary donations to make it easier for you to make a difference. Just $50 can give one student a backpack full of school supplies to help them achieve academic success.
