TO OUR PARTNERS, SUPPORTERS AND ‘OHANA Greetings and warmest aloha to all of the many friends and supporters of Partners in Development Foundation (PIDF). We welcome this annual opportunity to share with you the achievements and outcomes that our three hundred and twenty five colleagues and thousands of participants have accomplished this year, thanks to your support and encouragement! It is indeed a most humbling privilege to be a partner with my PIDF team and Board of Directors in the many and varied programs supporting our needy children and families. Over the years, I have come to believe that our ancestors understood the need to develop and support healthy and resilient children and families if the community is to prosper. I have also come to believe that they understood that traditional practices and perspectives form a strong foundation and provide amazing energy to move individuals, families, and communities successfully through present day challenges and threats. These are the concepts we have learned at PIDF, and as we enter our twentieth year of service to the community of Hawai‘i, we’d like to share with you a brief picture of our journey as an organization. This coming Spring of 2017, we will have served over 65,000 children and families in the areas of: education (early childhood, STEM/STEAM, professional development for teachers, parent/child education, and adult education), youth mentorships, foster resource licensing/support, Hawaiian culture, and sustainability. The awesome work and passion of our colleagues over the past two decades have reaffirmed for us just how powerful Hawaiian values and perspectives are in facing contemporary problems and seeking to put in place sustainable transformational change in the lives of those we serve. Me ke aloha pumehana,
Jan E. Hanohano Dill President

EDUCATION Building resilient sustainable communities starts with education. From our keiki to our kūpuna, we provide an array of quality educational programs to equip the most at-risk in our state with the tools needed to achieve longterm success. By integrating traditional culture and perspectives with progressive, evidence-based curriculum, our programs provide an approach that is meaningful and effective. For more information on these programs, go to pidf.org/programs
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AT A GLANCE TŪTŪ AND ME TRAVELING PRESCHOOL is a structured, interactive, hands-on learning environment that prepares children birth to five years old for school success while providing their caregivers with education, skills, and support to continue the practices at home. Teaching teams travel to twenty eight at-risk communities throughout the state to provide quality early childhood education twice a week at each site. Teams also provide resources for caregivers, reading books to take home, visits by health care providers, field trips, and opportunities for caregivers to learn and interact with their child. The program’s five-year longitudinal study on the program and adoption by the YMCA of the USA in over one hundred ten sites nationwide, have demonstrated the proven success and replicability of this program.
NĀ PONO NO NĀ ‘OHANA FAMILY EDUCATION provides comprehensive family literacy and education program for Native Hawaiians and others residents in Waimānalo, O‘ahu. The program adapts the four components of family literacy from the National Center for Families Learning (Child Education, Parent Education, Parent Child Together Time, Adult Education), molding them into a culturally sensitive program designed to forge a parental partnership in education. Through the program, adults learn to recognize and accept their responsibilities as parents, family members, workers, and citizens, while children learn age-appropriate skills to prepare them for success in school and life. The program has recently expanded to reach the homeless in Waimānalo, by conducting mobile outreach and food distribution.
“I now develop strategic learning targets to guide my students to success.” —Marcus Douglas, Kohala High School Teacher and Pili A Pa’a Participant

KA PA‘ALANA HOMELESS FAMILY EDUCATION delivers an integrated Tūtū and Me Traveling Preschool and Nā Pono Family Education program to increase the success and self-sufficiency of homeless families. In addition to its nationally accredited preschool site at Hope Shelter and numerous mobile preschool sites and homeless outreach services along the Leeward Coast of O‘ahu, Ka Pa‘alana has recently expanded to provide its much needed services to homeless families on Hawai‘i Island and Kaka‘ako, O‘ahu. Through collaborative partnerships, the program delivers a continuum of care by providing comprehensive family education, home visits, homeless outreach services, basic necessities, and also serves as an initial contact agency for families who are ready to transition to local shelters or temporary housing facilities.
PILI A PA‘A PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT provides professional development for up to eight teachers at a time, in a four-week intensive training and collaboration period designed to enhance their teaching practices. This program was created to address critical deficits in reading, math, and science for Native Hawaiian students on Hawai‘i Island and seeks to build each teacher’s knowledge of curriculum, Common Core Standards, and instructional strategies, while integrating Native Hawaiian cultural values and processes. Through this process, teachers are able to examine and integrate culturally responsive teaching strategies to increase academic achievement for their students. Increased collaboration between teachers in this program has also created professional learning communities within and between participating schools.
KA HANA NO‘EAU YOUTH MENTORING PROGRAM is a community-based program unique to Hawai‘i Island, comprised of mentorships as well as an academic support program called Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID). The program aims to provide mentorships for middle and high school students that are meaningful and extend beyond the scope of this program, seeking to nurture the potential within each youth and broaden their perspectives on positive and sustainable choices. A wide range of traditional and contemporary mentorships are offered, including: horsemanship, ‘ukulele construction, leather craft, agriculture, robotics, stream study, photography, and more.
BAIBALA HEMOLELE the Hawaiian Bible Project, preserves and marks the Hawaiian Bible in digital and print form to increase access of the Hawaiian Bible for the next generation of Hawaiian language students. In addition to incorporating diacritical markings for the first time since the Hawaiian Bible was published over 175 years ago, the project released a bilingual version of the New Testament with parallel HawaiianEnglish text and is currently working on providing a full bilingual Hawaiian-English Baibala Hemolele with Hawaiian Concordance. Searchable image and text files of the original Palapala Hemolele and various versions of Baibala Hemolele are available on its website www.baibala.org, along with a mobile app and audio track for select chapters (to assist in pronunciation, cadence, and intonation).

SOCIAL SERVICES We are all one ‘ohana; one community. We recognize that the health of each individual, especially our youth and disadvantaged populations, contributes to the health of us all. Our social service programs therefore not only build on the strengths of each individual, but also provide support, training, and education for the community to ensure success and sustainability. For more information on these services, go to pidf.org/programs
SOCIAL SERVICES AT A GLANCE HUI HO’OMALU foster resource program has held the master contract by the State of Hawai‘i Department of Human Services since 2006, to help enhance and advance Hawai‘i’s foster care system. The program is responsible for coordinating a statewide initiative to address the identification, recruitment, screening, assessment, training, ongoing support, and retention of resource families (formerly known as foster families). In addition to being the master contractor, Hui Ho‘omalu also recruits, trains, and conducts assessments for families who wish to become “General Licensed” Resource Caregivers (those who wish to provide care for unrelated children).
KE KAMA PONO SAFEHOUSE serves up to twelve adjudicated male youth at a time, ages thirteen to seventeen, for six to nine months. The goal of this program is to support the development and integration of critical life skills necessary for the youth’s long-term success and re-entry into society. Low recidivism rates and high employment or back-to-school rates of youth who complete this program are attributed to the program’s multi-faceted approach, which includes: youth mentoring, hands-on standards-based education by DOE teachers, family reunification, implementation of deep-rooted cultural values, and a safe, supportive home-like environment.
WE ARE OCEANIA is a three-year mentorship project to support a core group of Micronesian leaders in building and establishing an independent 501(c)(3) that will support the Micronesian community in achieving self-sufficiency, as PIDF has been striving to do for the Native Hawaiian community. The first pilot project under We Are Oceania is a One-Stop Center that aids in the successful transition of Micronesians in Hawai‘i, by linking the various Micronesian communities, families, and individuals with: public services, Federal, State, and community agencies, and other resources.

“Partners in Development Foundation continues to achieve a remarkable program service percentage. For its calendar year 2015, 93% of its resources went to serving people and only 6% went to overhead. The ratio of program service expenses to total expenses is an important measure of an organization’s efficiency in using its resources for the benefit of those it serves. The accepted minimum standard ratio is 65% to 75%.” (Carl Williams of CW & Associates, Inc., Independent auditors of PIDF since 2007)

SUPPORTER STORY: AMERICAN SAVINGS BANK We were honored to be the beneficiaries of American Savings Bank’s (ASB) 3rd Annual Curling Fundraiser last October, which raised over $100,000 for our Ka Pa‘alana Homeless Family Education Program! This sold-out fundraiser at Ice Palace included a free curling clinic with youth from PIDF’s Ke Kama Pono Safehouse program and students from Farrington High School, and an opportunity for participants of the fundraiser to compete in a curling tournament, be coached by Team USA Curling Olympians, and enjoy a delicious dinner buffet!
KAHIAU GIVING CAMPAIGN Our relationship with ASB began in 2013 when a group of ASB employees volunteered their Saturday morning as part of ASB’s Seeds of Service Event, to help clean, plant seeds, and install irrigation at PIDF’s Green Machine. Since then, ASB has continued to increase their strong support of PIDF, volunteering again in 2014 at Ka Pa‘alana’s Hope Shelter and in 2015 at one of our Tūtū and Me Traveling Preschool sites on Hawai‘i Island. In addition to volunteering their time, ASB has generously donated $17,132.81 in 2015 and $27,379 in 2016 through their Kahiau Employee Giving Campaign. We are truly blessed by the relationships we have been able to develop with all of our supporters and donors and would like to thank ASB for their continued partnership and growing support of our Foundation over these past several years. Not only have they been generous in donating their time and money to our programs at PIDF, but through their support they have helped increase awareness of our programs and of the needs in the communities we serve.

SUPPORTER STORY: HARRY AND JEANETTE WEINBERG FOUNDATION & KA PA‘ALANA HOMELESS FAMILY EDUCATION Partners In Development Foundation (PIDF) was presented with $25,000 for its Ka Pa‘alana Homeless Family Education Program by The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation (HJWF), one of the largest private foundations in the United States. Parents and their children rode in on buses from various homeless shelters along the Wai‘anae Coast, to enjoy an elegant Christmas luncheon hosted by HJWF at 3660 On The Rise. Upon arrival, families were greeted by HJWF Staff and escorted into a private banquet room where they were greeted by Elsa and Olaf from Disney’s Frozen, as well as Stuart from Universal Pictures’ Despicable Me. There were many different activity stations for the families to participate in such as coloring super heroes handdrawn by HJWF staff, getting spray art tattoos, and balloon creations. Lunch was prepared and served by Chef Russell Siu and staff at 3660 On The Rise. After eating, each child was called up by name to sit with Santa as they were presented with their very own sack of presents. “This is the best thing that will happen for most of these families this Christmas,” said Danny Goya, Program Director for Ka Pa‘alana. PIDF is forever grateful for the continuous generous support of The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation for all they have been doing to help fulfill the mission and vision of building healthy and resilient communities throughout Hawai‘i.
