The history of Palama Settlement is an interesting and proud one helping the community through the years. Disclosure: I am a volunteer for the keiki watercolor class and just started teaching watercolor for kupuna.

Palama teaches swimming, ukelele, sports, hula, homework tutoring, line dancing, sewing, and many think of Palama for their dental and other services.

If your heart isn't right with God, you might get offended. Please get your heart right with the Lord! It's worth it! Share Our Savior provides a family feel and the community is made up of homeless people, people that used to be homeless, and people like me who were never homeless. We believe that the gifts of God are relevant and prevalent in His people today just as they were with the early church. I personally experienced supernatural healing, a supernatural pregnancy after 12 years of infertility, speaking in tongues, and here there are so many members who are blessed with the power of the Holy Spirit. SOS also have active ministries that help being food and clothing to the needy.

My volunteering experience at the River of Life was truly remarkable. Registering for volunteering…read morewas very quick and easy. We went to the River of Life for a group project, I am in 7th grade and came with my dad not knowing what would happen. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and appreciated. The kitchen had a cozy and inviting atmosphere, and the staff was knowledgeable and were the sweetest people you've ever met. They are so close to God and make sure that everyone who eats their food has a great time. Seeing my group members so engaged and having a great time was fantastic. After two hours of volunteering, we were finally able to taste the food we helped prepare. It was so good and I highly recommend volunteering at this center and can't wait to return!

Your generous giving of donations in any amount; even if it means giving up a lunch once a week to support those in need is greatly appreciated and goes a long way.

A wonderful volunteer organization!…read more Check the website because each day of the week they typically are routine with the location and time frames for cleanups. It isn't only cleanups, they handle restoration and land management by preservation, teaching, and so much more. Kimeona and his team are well versed and well organized in what they are doing. They have equipment so when you arrive, after you fill out the documents online, you are ready to go. Of course prepare by getting a good meal in you, staying hydrated, bring water (they also supply water but bring your reusable water bottle), comfortable clothes and shoes, and be prepared to "give back"! I love learning history and culture and the oli and taking care of the Aina. I don't want to give away too much, but at the same time I want to share everything. I have been volunteering with this team, mostly at the same place, although I met up at Magic Island and it needed, for a couple of years. My takeaways, it's personal for me.

When people come visit Hawaii, they think about the beaches, food, partying, etc... People don't think about the impact it has on the ecology. We decided to pay our respect to the land that we enjoyed by helping clean it. This organization was more about teaching what is around us versus just picking up garbage. We first removed evasive trees along the river. The cool thing was that we moved the branches to a different area that feeds certain Beatles. Then months after the tress/branches were stepped on and crushed to be part of the earth. After about an hour and half of work we took a little environmental tour to learn of the necessary ecological balance needed for the islands. We saw the last type of a certain succulent, we saw endangered shrubs, and Hawaiian bees that are also endangered. We go to Hawaii and take, this time we gave back
