A Classroom Garden, Rain Barrels and more are just a few of the creative environmental Kokua Earth Action Projects that were recognized at this year's Keiki Kokua Day at the Polynesian Cultural Center.
Elementary school groups from around the island submitted Kokua Earth Action Project (KEAP) proposals in response to the Kokua Hawaii Foundation's call for positive action. Kokua Earth Action Projects are student-led environmental service learning initiatives aimed at taking care of our islands and encouraging long-lasting change in local classrooms, schools and communities.
The Keiki Kokua Day event culminated with a private concert for the students by Kokua Hawaii 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.
