The Kamehameha Foundation is raising funds for Hawaiian Language Schools for our children in Hawai`i

About this campaign

Hawai'i State Schools do not teach Hawaiian as a main language, so Hawaiian Language Charter Schools were formed to teach the young children the Hawaiian language as their main language in school. The Hawaiian language was in fact banned in the early 20th century, by the Territorial State of Hawai'i. As a result, the Hawaiian language was almost lost, but thanks to the charter schools, there is a revival of the Hawaiian language. The Kamehameha Foundation will donate all the proceeds raised to a Hawaiian language charter school.
