Reducing Plastic Waste
Every child deserves clean drinking water.
KCS is working to reduce single-use plastic bottles by installing filtered water refill stations in local schools. This initiative, driven by a collaboration between KCS Executive Director Candee Ellsworth and a local high school student, aims to improve health and reduce plastic waste in the community.
The project has already seen installations at several schools, with plans for more throughout West Hawai‘i!

Making an Impact
Keahole Center for Sustainability donating and installing filtered water refill stations this weekend at several local schools in and just outside Lahaina, Maui. Local schools sheltered and fed hundreds right after the fire for days before help arrived. Now, they have taken in hundreds of extra students from schools that were destroyed. Access to clean water is so important right now after the aftermath. These stations have seven filters and even alkalize and add electrolytes at the end.
