He Aha Keia Pahana?
What
is Project Ku'ikahi?
Project Ku'ikahi is an online database that features
Native Hawaiian-serving non-profit community
organizations and agencies that serve communities with
Native Hawaiians comprising at least 25% of its
population (criteria courtesy of Native Hawaiian
Leadership Project.)
He aha ka Mana'o 'o Ku'ikahi?
What does Ku'ikahi mean?
Ku'ikahi means to unite, to agree, and to make
peace. Through Project Ku'ikahi's effort to make
community service information current and easily accessible for the public, it aims to gather
individuals - from both the Native Hawaiian
community and from other valuable communities - of
whom together can directly coordinate their efforts to
provide kokua, or help, to some of O'ahu's
outstanding organizations. Ultimately, Project
Ku'ikahi hopes to unite a greater interest in the Native
Hawaiian community.
He aha e hiki ia'u ke kokua?
How can I help?
Project
Ku'ikahi's clearinghouse makes it very easy
for you to find organizations in O'ahu by three
different search options:
By Category
By Location
By Alphabetical List
All of these search options are located on the
volunteer web
page. The search can direct
you to a page which lists all pertinent volunteer
information for a specific organization.
Additionally, many of these agencies request
volunteers with specific skills or requirements.
These, in combination with additional information about
each agency, help you to gain a better understanding of
the kind of work you might be able to expect as a
volunteer. Project Ku'ikahi aims to make getting
this information as efficient as possible for you.
