We are very excited at La'akea to be hosting a fundraiser for Puna Pono 
on May 4th and we are pleased to invite you to attend. It will be a day 
full of entertainment, education, food and fun (it's kid friendly, as 
well!).

We hope to raise $4,000. We ask for a donation of $10-$30, but all are 
welcome. There are lots of ways to make valuable contributions to Puna 
Pono and a safe Hawaii. For more information on the event or ways to
