My Project

We are reaching out for your support to empower Hawaiian students who have faced the challenges of COVID-19 through a transformative STEM and art exploration project.

Your contribution will provide solar robotics kits and bristle bot building materials, engaging students in hands-on activities that deepen their understanding of technology and teamwork.

The inclusion of magnifying glasses will open avenues for scientific exploration, fostering a curiosity for the world around them. Furthermore, chalk art supplies and tie-dye kits with white T-shirts will offer a platform for artistic expression, encouraging creativity while teaching scientific principles. This project aims not only to provide essential educational resources but also to instill critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills in our students. Your generosity will play a pivotal role in shaping a brighter future for these resilient young minds. Mahalo for your support.
