Pledge to our keiki overview
The Pledge to Our Keiki is a commitment to protect and care for Hawai‘i’s people, culture, and environment for generations to come. Created by local students, the pledge reflects what they cherish most about our islands and what they hope to preserve. By adopting the pledge, you become part of a collective effort to mālama ʻāina (care for the land) and ensure Hawai‘i thrives for future generations.
