MALAMA DE KEIKI THANKSGIVING CELEBRATION

KAUI KAUHI AND FRIENDS MALAMA DE KEIKI

THANKSGIVING CELEBRATION

WAIMANALO, HAWAII

So proud of what my friend Kaui Kauhi does for his hometown of Waimanalo.  Each year he rallies his friends, family and local business owners to provide gifts and a Thanksgiving meal for the children (Keiki) and families in Waimanalo.  Everything comes from his heart and everything is donated with no tax write off or deduction.  Just local people coming together to do something good.  Kaui works tiressly to organize this event that includes hundreds of toys, bikes, food, haircuts and positive role models for any family that shows up.  It is the true spirit of Aloha that I am so proud to be a part of.  So very proud of Kaui too.  The man came from nothing and gives more than anyone I know.  All just to help the children of the town where he grew up in and lives.  He asks for nothing in return and tries with all his heart to instill positive thoughts and faith in every child.  All of the adults formed a circle around the kids for a prayer.  Then Kaui made all of the kids go around the circle and hug and thank every adult who was there.  He wanted them to show their gratitude to those who provided everything around them.  Truly a special moment in Hawaii.
