NOTES FROM PAST fundraisers:
Nearly two dozen students, parents and friends participated in this year's Charity Walk at Waikoloa Resort this year, and what a fun event it was! And we had a very lucky grand prize winner - one of our WHEA students won round trip airfare for two people to any Southwest Airlines destination! See - volunteering has valuable rewards!
Proceeds from Charity Walk will benefit our Class of 2020!
