We are still actively participating with the effort to complete the homes at Kahauiki Village near Sand Island.  Thousands of volunteers like yourselves have and continue to donate their precious time and resources to building homes that will eventually house 153 homeless families on Oahu. Kahauiki Villages still needs our help.  Our club has been asked to donate items to outfit one residential unit. The list of things requested appear below.  In lieu of bringing a gift for the Keiki to our annual Christmas Party this year, our Club is requesting that you donate one or more of the items listed. With a little effort, we will be able to provide all of the items requested.  If you would like to participate by donating one or more of the listed items, please click on the following link and identify the items you wish to donate. Then bring the item(s) with you to the Club Christmas Party which will be held on Saturday, 12/9 at the Oahu Country Club.  If you prefer to donate cash so that we can buy the items instead, please feel do so. If you have any questions about the donation program, please do not hesitate to contact me.
