    Aloha from Hawaii! I am a social worker working for a Hawaiian organization. Our target population is orphan and other destitute Hawaiian children. Community building is the new "buzzword" in our agency and we are working hard in partnership with individuals, families, and communities towards a goal of a thriving Hawaiian community. We just got hooked up to the internet at work and I am building up a community building folder in my "favorite places" bookmark. Needless to say, this site is one of them! Malama Pono (take care).
