This is the time of the year when we ask you to
join or renew your Kōkua Mau Membership. Membership is tax-deductible and your financial support helps us to maintain and expand our programs. This includes the e-newsletters, free materials for download (including POLST and the new Advance Directive), our well-visited website, various training opportunities, monthly meetings, Palliative Pupus, and our expanding Speakers Bureau.
2016 will certainly be busy as we look forward to more outreach activities with churches, temples and other community groups - let us know if you would like to schedule our Speakers Bureau to visit. We also look forward to ongoing education and networking opportunities for professionals, both those organized by Kokua Mau and those where we can collaborate with partners.
Membership and donations are an essential part of keeping Kōkua Mau fiscally sustainable. Last year we had nearly 100 individuals who joined and details for membership are below. We especially encourage
organizational membership by community leaders that support our mission. Please contact Kokua Mau's Executive Director
Jeannette Koijane for details.
How do I join? 2 easy ways
Download a membership form, include a check and and mail it to the Kokua Mau address on the form. (Renewing members can just send in a check without the form.)
Online: Chose your membership level
online or on the
PDF file and click the
Donate Now button on the right hand side of the webpage. Please put '
membership' in the '
Designation (Optional)' field, click 'add to giving cart' and follow the subsequent steps. We know, the free version of network for good does not look exciting but it is free.
With all donations going into programs we don't offer you another tote bag, but we still do have the ever popular:
low cost virtual Kōkua Mau mug.
In thanks for your membership: All members are
honored on the Kōkua Mau website and on written materials that are displayed at events
Thank you!
