Tanztheater Wuppertal is absolutely beyond! The energy and passion, from the first step onto the stage to the last splash of water, paid tribute to Pina Bausch in a way only Pina could have inspired. There was complete abandon in the glee celebrating the absurdity, humor, and angst in life that could happen only under a "Vollmond." It runs through October 9 at BAM. A definite Yes!

Mahalo!
Dear Friends and Supporters,
From the keikis of Hawaii, Mahalo!
We are a significant step closer to being able to offer consistent assistance to shelters throughout the island of Oahu thanks to your support of the Borders Books Shopping Days!
One of the foundation's exciting projects is on hold until we receive approval on a stove permit for the families at the Kaka'ako Shelter on Oahu.
This stove unit will serve the parents and young children in manufacturing "Energy Bars" to generate revenue to financially assist them in leaving the shelter system with the skills and confidence to sustain themselves as a family participating fully in the world at large. 100% of the profits will go directly to the shelter. The Kaka'ako Shelter offers very basic, no frills housing that is safe and secure and is fortunate to have the University of Hawaii and Hawai'i Pacific Campus Compact's tutor and mentor programs available to them.
I would also like to extend a special Mahalo to my cousin, Elizabeth Hata-Watanabe, who in addition to spearheading the energy bar project, baked her heart out to help fill several hundred "keiki backpacks" for the Hawaii Foodbank, while successfully carpeting the Nanakuli Middle and High Schools, the Waianae Civic Center, the Waianae Shelter, and several HUD housing projects!
As soon as the stove is approved, funding for the licensing and materials of the "Energy Bar" will be needed. I hope we will be able to count on your support in another (fun)draising project!
For more ways to lend your kokua and updates on what's going on in Hawaii please check in with: www.thehatafoundation.org
Once again thank you for your generosity and support!
With much Aloha,
