Hamakua Youth Center has one week to raise funds for a new van needed to begin their summer program. At 7 p.m. tomorrow evening, the public can support the effort at a “Van for the Fam” fundraiser at Honokaa People’s Theatre with a suggested $10 entry fee. The goal is to raise $30,000 total.
The evening will include local comedy videos from Rap Reiplinger, Andy Bumatai and Frank DeLima, hosted live by Tita Nui, Darde Gamayo, as well as an Aunty Marialani cooking show contest, a “Golden Musubi” ticket, costumes and ono grinds.
The summer program will begin June 12, but many of the activities planned can’t happen without the new van to transport kids to outdoor locations.
