I have had the privilege of being a client of Windward 'Ōlelo and sharing my voice with the community since 2006. I've produced almost 600 programs that have aired on 'Ōlelo, and the one constant through it all has been the amazing center Manager Donna and her staff!
From the very start they have been extremely helpful in making this journey enjoyable and equipping me with the tools I need to get my message/programs on TV. Every question I've ever asked has been met with a sincere desire to teach and inform, so I can create a program I'll be proud of.
Over the years Donna has become more than just the Windward 'Ōlelo Manager who has guided my growth in production and editing, she has become a friend. I feel honored to have earned her trust when checking out/borrowing expensive equipment or being at the center sharing about our families, job, or latest great food spot to try!
I've observed the wonderful relationships Donna and her staff also have with King Intermediate school, its students and other community organizations including the women's community correctional center (WCCC) in Kailua. There's such a selflessness that goes into training women who are incarcerated to feel empowered to get their stories out to the community.
If you are willing to learn, they are ready and willing to teach! Windward 'Ōlelo truly provides opportunities to Empower, Equip and Engage in order to create and deliver your stories, your messages, to your community!
You'll get access to media training, equipment, studios, editing, and air time on cable TV and the web. What an awesome resource available to YOU!!
So what are you waiting for? Sign up for a training class here or at any one of the five other 'Ōlelo Community Media centers around the island!
