WHR Service Project - Welcome Home Kits: Sun, May 2 at 9am
 
Hi WHR Service Team:
 
Great job this past weekend! Hope you enjoyed making a difference in our community while having fun and enjoying each other's company!
 
Our next service project is to create Welcome Home Kits for households transitioning out of homelessness. This includes purchasing items and creating the kits. 
 
To save us some time, we're going to try to purchase the items beforehand by breaking up the list of items. Then we're going to meet on Sunday, May 2 at 9am at Partners in Care (located at the Aloha United Way building) to assemble the kits. This way we can leave the kits there, saving us a delivery trip. Here are the details:
 
Project: Welcome Home Kits
Date: Sunday, May 2, 2021, at 9:00 am
Location: Partners in Care (Aloha United Way Building, 200 N. Vineyard Blvd, Building A, Suite 210)
Details: We will be making 10 Welcome Kits for 1-bedroom apartments.
  1. Please sign-up using the doodle poll link:  https://doodle.com/poll/2sunk7pxny658t4i?utm.
  2. Take a look at the shopping list and sign-up in the blue column for the items you'd like to shop for by the end of Wednesday, April 28. The items, quantities, and basic descriptions are listed. Please use your own judgment with regards to size, quality, and cost. We'd like to get the best value, if possible. The items don't have to match. However, we'd like to at least keep the items per kit the same (e.g., eating utensils, plates, etc.). We also welcome donated items if you would like to purchase and donate or if you have unused items at home.
  3. Shop at your own time at your favorite store for the items and quantities you signed up for. Suggested stores include Walmart, Target, Sam's Club, and Costco. Keep your receipts. 
  4. By Friday, April 30, please mark if you have purchased your items or are certain you will purchase the items by Sunday in the green column. Any remaining items Cici will try to pick-up on Saturday.
  5. On Sunday, May 2, join your fellow WHR members at Partners in Care to assemble the Welcome Kits. Bring the following items, if you have them:
    • Large cardboard boxes
    • Permanent markers
    • Scissors
    • Packing tape
    • String
    • Newspaper
    • Plastic or paper shopping bags
    • Rolling cart/hand truck
Attire: Feel free to wear your WHR polo. **NOTE: The AC is off in their building. They will have fans, but it will likely be warm.
Questions: Please contact Cici Fong (cafong@gmail.com or 808-429-8535).
 
Thank you for your help!

THANK YOU!  RE:  WHR Service Project, Ridge to Reef: Saturday, April 24 @ 8am
Thanks again to everyone who supported this past Saturday's service project and came out for Rotarians at Work, Ridge to Reef Project at Ala Moana Beach Park. 
 
We had a total of 21 volunteers that helped collect 51.1 lbs of trash.
 
I'll eyeball the rest but here are some highlights:
  • cat food containers
  • shoes (4 total but I don't think there was a full pair)
  • clothes
  • PPE
  • lots of cigarette butts
  • lots of plastic bottle caps
  • lots of beer bottle caps
  • 1 amazing wooden pallet (dragged from the Ewa side of the beach back to "base camp"/near Magic Island) 
Thank you again for making our home, from ridge to reef, a little cleaner!
 
If you have any photos, please send them to me and I'll send them to EcoClub who is compiling all the information and pictures. I've attached a few for your viewing delight!
 
For those who can join us for our next service project, please save the date and time, Sunday, May 2 starting at 9am - until pau. I'll start a new email string.
 
Thanks again!
Cici
