Community Service
We participated in helping spearhead the build of transitional homes for those evacuees displaced by the 2018 Kilauea eruptions. This community based project helped build (20) 10' x 12' tiny homes, restroom facilities, and a common area that provided shelter and safety to displaced families. By volunteering our manpower, equipment, and materials, we were able to offer some relief to the families in need within the Pahoa communities.

LAUPAHOEHOE MUSIC FESTIVAL, 2005 - Present
Our annual participation with the Laupahoehoe Music Festival is an important event where we give back to the community that has helped shape who we are today. From setting up the main stage, vendor facilities, and cleanup, we are grateful for the opportunity to serve the community where we were born and raised.
We assisted Keanu with his Eagle Scout project, which involved constructing a showcase kiosk to honor those impacted by the historic 1946 tsunami at Laupāhoehoe Point. As we work alongside the youth of our Laupāhoehoe community, we continue to maintain this kiosk. In doing so, we help instill the importance of strengthening our community ties. Laupahoehoe is a place that keeps us simple and grounded. God, Family, Country!

TYLER EAGLE SCOUT PROJECT, July 2015
We were able to assist Tyler in completing his Eagle Scout project at Waiakea High School in Hilo. It is a privilege for us to be part of the lives of our youth as they develop a sense of gratification through service and recognize their vital role in the community.
