My Project

Our students are leading a Coconut Rhinoceros Beetle (CRB) Awareness Campaign to protect our native coconut trees and educate the community. They inspect trees, host educational events, and document their work using an iPad.

We’re requesting charger cords, memory cards, and a durable iPad case so students can continue their outreach without delays or damaged equipment.

These tools are essential for capturing interviews, inspection footage, and environmental workshops.

This student-led service benefits both our school and surrounding community by raising awareness, inspiring action, and helping preserve Hawaiʻi’s environment. Your support helps students lead real change and protect our “Tree of Life.”
