‘Aikane o Nu‘uanu

5th Grade Fundraiser

The 5th Grade Legacy Project is an annual tradition where 5th Graders raise money for their parting gift to Nu‘uanu Elementary School. Past gifts have included many of the beautiful murals and stone tiles found across campus, the peace garden, benches, and even the Gaga pit.

For ‘Aikane O Nu‘uanu to be effective and truly representative of the school, it’s essential to have family involvement from as many families as possible. Many working parents feel that they can’t be included because they can’t attend every meeting but there are endless possibilities in ways you can help.

We always need parent-family support. We have several committees that need help such as Family Fun Night, fundraising, events, and much more. If you can give 5 hours of your time a month or only 30 minutes, we’ll take it! Currently we are looking for volunteers for the following committees:

Family Fun Night Committees
❏ Silent Auction - Co-Chair and Team Members
❏ Donations - Team Members
❏ Games - Team Members (especially if you're a carpenter/builder)
❏ Country Store - Co-Chair
❏ Volunteers - Co-Chair
❏ Audio - Team Member (have their own equipment)

If you’re interested in volunteering or learning more about Family Fun Night committees, email Trish Lum at nuuanu6996@gmail.com or Kahele Naeole at knaeole@yahoo.com

What is Aikane O Nu‘uanu?
Aikane O Nu‘uanu was founded in 1975 and is your parent-teacher organization. Our mission is to foster a spirit of ‘ohana between students, their families, staff and our community so that together, we can make every Nu‘uanu Elementary School student’s pursuit of lifelong learning a reality.

What do we do?
Through membership dues and fundraising efforts, we help to enrich our student’s learning environment by purchasing necessary items such as air conditioning, new classroom furniture, a new playground, TVs, computers and supplies, and providing field trip subsidies, just to name a few things. We also foster a spirit of ‘ohana and aim to create life-long memories by hosting family-friendly events such as Family Fun Night to bring our community together.
