<br /> Youth ~rrd Fa~vail'~ Support F~rograrns
<br /> For programs providing services to families, at-risk youth, including drug education, mentoring and recreational
<br /> opportunities-Boys ~ Girls Club of Hawaii, Family Support Services of West Hawaii, Island of Hawaii YMCA
<br /> Youth at Risk, Salvation Army Puna Prevention Program and Kona Interim Home, Special Olympics (East &
<br /> West Hawaii), YWCA Ekahi Program, and YWCA Kohala Intergenerational Center, we propose increased grants
<br /> to five programs, funding of two new programs, and lesser grants for two other programs.
<br /> Following the dissolution of the board of directors of the Boys ~ Girls Club of Hilo, this committee unanimously
<br /> approved a budget resolution to transfer $20,000 of FY 200()-01 funds to the new administration of the Boy's and
<br /> Girl's Club of Hawaii, based in Honolulu. At present, this historic Hilo youth facility is undergoing
<br /> reorganization. We are encouraged by the organization of a strong advisory board of Hilo leaders who have
<br /> rallied to the cause of rebuilding the Boy's and Girl's Club. Accordingly, we propose a $30,000 grant in the
<br /> comin4 year. We believe that a strong community fund drive, coupled with more realistic graduated fees, will
<br /> help this organization's renewal and re-establishment of aHilo-administered Boy's and Girl's Club.
<br /> We support broader funding for Special Olympics programs and the after-school Ekahi program in Honokaa.
<br /> Additionally, the impressive umbrella of programs housed ui family centers in Naalehu and Kohala run by Family
<br /> Support Services of West Hawaii warrants funding support, particularly in lieu of state cutbacks for family
<br /> centers. VVe further commend the strong collaboration of the Salvation Army's "Smart Moves" youth program
<br /> with the Department of Education in Puna.
<br /> Recommended funding for the new YWCA's Kohala Intergenerational Center is admittedly small. We are
<br /> concerned that construction of this facility is not yet complete, nor are its intended programs operational, nor is
<br /> the property ready to be deeded to the County of I-Iawaii. We acknowledge that the volunteerism of Kohala
<br /> seniors and kupuna dedicated to the project has been remarkable. However, we would like to encourage the
<br /> YWCA and the Kohala community to view limited county funds as a start-up grant. Considerable planning and
<br /> board development are needed to generate sustained fundin€; for this project and to make its vision a reality.
<br /> Finally, we do not recommend funding for the Hilo YWCA's aquatics program, as a pool facility is a mainstay of
<br /> YWCA offerings and€:~ typically supported by member use fees and dynamic marketing.
