Description

Helping Homeless Keiki have a wonderful Easter!
Big Island ~ Hilo. 10:45 AM to 1:00 PM
Aloha, and welcome to Project Hawai’i, Inc. a volunteer staffed nonprofit organization run solely by public donations!! This allows us to help the unsheltered children across the islands with their life necessities along with holiday events with your help at fundraisers like these!!
Children who grow up in poverty are less likely to have the fun childhood memories that the holiday bring that help them grow with self confidence and worth. Our program assures that every child knows the cheer of Easter with a hot meal, Easter baskets delivered by the bunny and hygiene to help keep them clean. Our children will experience days without the comfort of meals when school is out and when returning back to school will miss out of the joy children share of their holiday vacation without our support. YOU MAKE THIS HAPPEN in just a few hours of your time on a Saturday!!
Please join our efforts to help bring the joys these children deserve and make this holiday one for them to remember. Imagine being a child and waking up to the sun or even raindrops peeking through your tent knowing there is no food, no joy of an Easter Egg hunt or a visit from the bunny... and then all of a sudden across the sand, or through the bushes here comes the childhood joy of the bunny bringing Easter to you... the one that is always forgotten and left out!!
Be their cheer... come to one or more of our events, bring a friend, be the light!!
