Jack and Friends play at the 2nd Annual KEIKI KOKUA DAY to Celebrate Students
May 01, 2009A Classroom Garden, Rain Barrels, Banning Styrofoam Lunch Trays, Recycled Fashion and more! These projects are just a few of the creative environmental Kokua Earth Action Projects that were recognized at this year’s Keiki Kokua Day this past Friday, April 24th. Although the Kokua Festival took a hiatus this year, the 2nd annual Keiki Kokua Day continued on. Over 800 students, parents and teachers from 13 school groups across the island of Oahu spent the morning at the Polynesian Cultural Center participating in hands-on environmental activities, viewing slideshows of each other’s Kokua projects, tasting local foods and healthy snacks, and visiting interactive booths.
The event culminated with a private concert for the students by Kokua Hawai’i Foundation co- founder Jack Johnson. Johnson was joined on stage by fellow Kokua board member, Kawika Kahiapo, and musical friends Zach Gill and the Banana Slug String Band.
Mahalo to Presenting Partners: Fruitabu, HECO, Kokua Hawaii Foundation, Polynesian Cultural Center, SIGG and Whole Foods Market, for helping to make this event a great success. Hawaii educators interested in participating in the Keiki Kokua Day next year can visit the Kokua Hawaii Foundation’s website to learn more about the Kokua Earth Action Projects for the 2009-2010 school year.
