Student Aloha Program
Aloha United Way's Student Aloha program was started in 1994 by Campaign Team Chair David H. McCoy to nurture future community leaders. It gives Oahu's students first-hand experience in fostering the values and joys of community service through fun and educational projects. Funds donated to Student Aloha go toward Aloha United Way's Community Care Fund, benefitting the community each year.
