get more volunteers to help with all their efforts. Although the programs are always completed, sometimes it would be easier on those who are volunteering if they just had an extra hand.

through being a mentor to the homeless children. I spent one month with the directors and volunteers during the summer camp. During this time we were able to provide an educational and life changing routine for the children. At the end the children all went back to their parents with all their back to school needs, from new backpacks to new outfits. I was part of this wonderful experience and can say it was an absolute success!!
I would have more teens get involved. Don't miss this opportunity of a lifetime

I think if the program had more funds to run the programs it would run a bit more smooth. As well, the teens wouldn't have to work so hard on the fundraising efforts and could spend more time with the children themselves.
I was able to earn 200 hours of community service certificate. I earned letters of recommendation and was able to use my experience to get a part time job after-school working with young children. Furthermore, I was able to attend leadership and mentoring workshops that I can take with me throughout my life. The skills and confidence gained is unexplainable. You just have to experience for yourself
Full of love, confident and knowing I truly made a difference in this world.

so many ways. First starting out as a volunteer to help raise funds and items needed to make events possible was extremely insightful. Not realizing how much it actually takes to care for the keiki, and the lack of support that actually comes from fundraising events. Second, I volunteered at the Christmas party and not only was that life-changing for the children, but it changed my life as well. Being able to bring so much joy to a child in just a few hours is really rewarding. I now love my holidays
hope to get more funding and support. More people, companies and others need to know that this organization is for real, and putting 100% of the donations to awesome work!! YOUR donations do make a difference.

If more people were there to help. The group is short handed on volunteers who really want to make a difference, not just show up to say they helped.
I am happy to be there and love to see the keiki smiling faces.
Overwhelmed at first, but then filled my heart with love
I was able to help the children in my group to become more aware of the islands wonders, learn life skills and social skills that will help them when they go back to school. I saw the impact first hand by working with the children from day one. Some children were very dysfunctional in basic life skills such as sitting at a table to eat, or brushing their teeth. I helped them learn and grow over the summer.
Because they are run 100% by volunteers and the teen mentoring program is pretty intense, I would just like to see more teens attend to make the difference I was able to do.

I would hope that others would get involved so that not so much of the work is put on the few volunteers we had.
I learned patients and more about my own self by working with the children. I really grew up over the summer. Even my mom said that I am more aware of those around me, and I tend to help around the house more.
It was the best time of my life. I was proud to see my camp buddies grow because of my efforts. I was happy to see their faces and help them throughout the month. I felt like I really made a difference that will change the lives of all those involved.

I was referred by my case worker when I needed to find support for my children for the holidays
They give us hope and help me to be a better mom to my children. Just knowing that someone out there really cares helps me to hold on for a better tomorrow.
