Partners

Behind the scenes of the Hāmākua Youth Center there is a lot of sweat and a few tears as we work to keep the center open to serve the needs of our keiki and families.  This year more than ever. We are ever grateful for the many who step forward to give of their time, talents, and means to keep the center open and in pursuit of our mission to open doorways to the world by sharing life skills rooted in the Hawaiian values of kuleana, aloha, laulima, and mahalo.
