About this organization
Mission
To address the repair and maintenance backlog of Hawaii's public schools through community involvement.
About
Repair, remodel and restore Hawaii's public schools: The organization awards grants to public schools for repair and maintenance projects including painting, landscaping, and general cleanup. Funds are generated from private contributions and a checkoff on the state tax form. Volunteers are recruited to provide 'sweat equity' for each project equal to at least half of the requested grant amount. Since its inception in 2001, Hawaii 3rs has conducted 500 projects at schools across the state, saving the state more than $40 million. Hawaii 3rs also partners with the state department of education to establish the Congressman K. Mark Takai transition centers in key schools. These transition centers are designed to help new students, such as military transfers, foreign students, immigrants or those families relocating from the mainland. Ambassadors from the general school population ensure that the new students become acquainted with the facilities, programs and the new friends they will make. Educators find that this provides a better learning situation for the new student, avoiding the 'acting out' new students might face in a perceived hostile environment.
