Aloha All,
It has been 2 weeks since the conference and I have been so busy
following up on the great leads we got that day that I have not taken
the time to stop and thank you for all your efforts in putting together
an event of such importance to our community!!
I know it was a huge amount of work to pull that all together and
everyone that went is still on a high cloud of joy for all that
happened that day.
I have talked with so many that were there and they all say how blessed they were to have been a art of it.
For my company alone we have benefited by starting a partnership
with another agency to better serve the Waimanalo community. We will
both be better able to service our clients by working together.
We also got a call from a couple that has property in the Waianae
are and wants to work with us in some capacity to have the two houses
on the land benefit ex-offenders. We are still in the talking stages
with them but things look promising. They are also helping run
Thanksgiving dinner in Wahiawa and we are going to have our seniors
class in that area make decorations for the event.
Again, mahalo for all your time and talent and we look for ward to working with you again.

Your conference on Partnership of Compassion for the Community was awesome. However, I was more interested in the Emergency Preparedness and Disaster Response and didn't have a chance to go to the other workshops.
Can
you please email a list of the presenters and contact numbers when it
becomes available. I am going to promote this conference to my other =
friends in their churches and groups? We are about due for a major disast=
er one of these days.
The churches and other organizations are not preparing their congregation at this time.
The prophets have warned us to be prepared with food and water. No one is taking heed. The Civil Defense are warning us but very few are preparing.
Mahalo for your vision,
Rhoda Kaluai
Thank you for organizing such a great event. I was able to network with
so many people/organizations from so many areas. I look forward to
future events where we can talk in-depth about these areas of interest.

This was a great opportunity to get to know many different Faith-based organizations. Great time to network & allow there organizations to get in touch with State and Federal Government agencies as well as the Red Cross and Salvation Army. This is only the beginning.
