Thank you so much for your interest in supporting one of our houseless keiki for their school supplies this year. Houselessness already poses so many barriers to effective education for our youth and the lack of proper supplies should not be one of those barriers. If you are interested, please select a child (or several children) from the list below. You will be responsible for getting all the things on the school supply list for that child, depending on their grade and specific school. We are also asking that you purchase a backpack that would be appropriate for that child. You can do this as an individual or a group of friends! The average cost for one child is $50-75 (but if you are a super shopper, you can definitely get it all for cheaper). Supplies will need to be dropped off at the John A. Burns School of Medicine by Monday, July 29, 2024.
If you don't have time to shop, you can also make a donation to help sponsor one of our Keiki and we will do the shopping for you! You can venmo your contribution to @Friends-ofHawaiiHOMEProject (last 4 digits 8859), pay via credit card at https://go.hawaii.edu/F7y, or pay by check. Checks should be made payable to: Friends of Hawaii HOME Project. They can be mailed to: Hawaii HOME Project, 651 Ilalo Street, MEB-OME, Honolulu, HI, 96813.
