Pearl City First Graders Have New Backpacks, Supplies thanks to Servco

First graders at Lehua Elementary School in Pearl City today have something to cheer about, thanks to Servco Pacific Inc. (Servco). In June and July, Servco employees collected 415 new backpacks and school supplies through an internal drive, to donate to first-graders at seven well-deserving schools across Oahu. In addition to Lehua Elementary, Ben Parker Elementary, Palolo Elementary, Puohala Elementary, Lincoln Elementary, Honowai Elementary and Kalihi Elementary all received the special gifts. Each of the schools received backpacks full of school supplies including crayons, markers, portfolios, three-ring binders, pencil boxes, glue, scissors, erasers, pencils, composition books and other necessary items earlier this month.

The backpack drive was initiated by a team of Servco employees who recognized that families may struggle to provide their children with what they need to succeed in school, particularly in these difficult economic times.

Servco’s Connie Higaki smiles as Lehua Elementary’s Taeyion King and Alexa Hurd receive new backpacks.

Bank of Hawaii Partners with Military to Make a Difference

Submitted by Bennet Group on Monday, August 20th, 11:11 am

More than 150 Bank of Hawaii and military volunteers partnered to support financial education, to spruce up Makalapa Elementary and Radford High School, and to heighten driver awareness of the need to slow down around local schools on Saturday. These activities were all part of National Community Service Day 2012, and included volunteer support from the Navy League of the United States, USO, Operation Homefront, and the Military and Family Support Center.

In conjunction with Pedestrian Safety Month, the morning started with a “Traffic Slow Down” along Salt Lake Blvd. Volunteers waved signs to remind drivers to slow down in this area where many students walk to and from school. The Honolulu Police Department assisted BOH and military volunteers.

Then the group split up, with about half the BOH and military volunteers going to Makalapa Elementary to clean and paint the parking lot, while the rest cleaned and painted locker rooms and walls at Radford High School.
