KEAP APPLICATIONS DUE 12/18

Posted On: Oct 01, 09

Kokua Earth Action Projects (KEAP) is a student-led environmental service learning initiative aimed at taking care of our islands and encouraging long-lasting change in our classrooms, schools or community. Student groups from Hawai’i schools create and execute their own projects.  Some Kokua Earth Action Projects include: instituting a program to compost lunch waste, starting an on-campus garden, setting up a recycling or water catchment program, adopting a beach, energy conservation and more.

Each year, we invite Hawai’i elementary schools to start a Kokua Earth Action Project. This is the first year middle and high school students are invited to participate! Groups submitting outstanding Kokua Earth Action Project proposals will be invited to participate in a Keiki Kokua Day event. All completed projects will be honored and showcased on our website. Proposals for the 2009-2010 school year are due December 18, 2009. Please download a proposal from this page.
