“Let's help keep them up and running!” is Jessie Radovich’s rallying cry in CTAHR’s Alumni Connection newsletter. The alumni connection specialist has gathered together information about a number of small businesses and farms, owned and operated by alumni and friends of the college who can use our support now more than ever.

Faculty in the College of Education (COE) are collaborating with Lunalilo Home Residential Care and Pūnana Leo o Mānoa preschool to help gather much-needed food and supplies for kūpuna, or elders. They are asking members of the college and the larger community to collect various items that the care home needs as their supplies diminish and families and loved ones are unable to visit.

If you haven’t checked out the COVID-19 Resources for Hawai‘i page at the CTAHR website, now’s the time to do it! You’ll find lots there that you can use yourself and even more that you can share with your stakeholders, from Food Safety and Sourcing to Mental Health and what to do At Home for the duration. And please contribute anything you have to add as well!
