Thank You Barnes & Noble, BJ Penn, MMA Hawaii Magazine, and 7 Volunteers
Thank you to Barnes & Noble-Ala Moana, MMA Hawaii Magazine, BJ Penn, and the 7 volunteers who helped us in a fundraising event for Hawaii Literacy on June 28 at Ala Moana Shopping Mall. The children were super excited about meeting a local athlete and had a great time combing the children's book section.
A percentage of all proceeds earned will go to Hawaii Literacy's Classroom on Wheels Program (Bookmobile) and the Family Libraries.
