Review for Ho ola Na Pua, Haleiwa, HI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The development of this organization has been amazing. The dedicated professionals involved have created awareness of the depth of sex trafficking on many levels of the community to thousands of people. The core goal to build a home to restore the lives of the domestic minor survivors of this crime has raised a response from people who want to support this effort in many ways. The work ahead is daunting and this has energized many talented professionals who want to be a part of this huge effort.
Three years ago I didn't even know sex trafficking of minors was an issue in Honolulu. Now I am aware and determined to be a part of doing whatever I can to change this issue in our state.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Add more dedicated volunteers in grant writing and marketing and to support the awareness effort. Raise its profile to potential donors who can help capitalize the restoration of the targeted facility. It needs $2.5 million of in kind construction services and materials and equipment for the home by mid 2014.
