Donate school supplies to provide keiki — grades K-12 — across Hawaii with the tools needed to make their educational experiences productive.   

For more than 25 years, Ready to Learn has helped families ensure that no child goes without school supplies. Many students prefer to skip classes instead of returning with last year’s used supplies and backpacks. They may feel ashamed for having to go without the supplies or experience being different from their peers. Without support and encouragement, these students may fall behind in school or develop problematic behaviors that negatively impact their learning and progress.   

Each year, RTL partners help prepare thousands of local children for the upcoming school year.   

Adopt a Family (AAF) is a seasonal event that links individuals and families in need with generous donors in the community. Participants are referred to the program through our large network of community partners. With hundreds of individual donors, we make a difference by having families in need adopted to fulfill their holiday wishes. Our AAF donors provide much needed assistance to a wide range of participants, such as the elderly and disabled, veterans, domestic violence survivors, children, and many others who are struggling. Our goal is to bring families peace, happiness, love, and joy during the holiday season.
