Student Aloha Program

2010-student-aloha-logo.jpgAloha United Way’s Student Aloha Program was created in 1994 by Campaign Team Chair David H. McCoy to nurture our future community leaders. The program teaches Oahu’s students the importance of philanthropy and how the power of giving back can truly make a difference in the lives of those who need it the most. It encourages our students to become active participants in our community through fundraising, volunteerism and learning more about what they can do to help. Since its inception, the program has raised over $552,000 for
Aloha United Way.
