The Lokahi Giving Project is a unique partnership between Hawai`i's number one news station, KHON2 and the family-strengthening non-profit organization Keiki O Ka ?Aina Family Learning Centers.Since being established in 1985 by newscaster Leslie Wilcox and Social Services Director MariEllen Jones, Lokahi has helped Hawai`i's struggling families by providing them with life's basic necessities, year round emergency assistance, and brighter holiday seasons.
Lokahi lends a helping hand to those who face a life crisis or emergency situation beyond their control. It not only assists the poorest of the poor, but also the struggling gap group not qualified for assistance by any other programs.
