About the Foundation
At The Kalei Foundation, through community partnerships and scholarship support, we help families discover meaningful opportunities that encourage development, independence, and belonging. Our mission is to open doors to experiences that foster creativity, physical activity, and personal growth for youth who have historically been underrepresented in these programs.
We believe children are not defined by limitations – they are defined by their potential.

Support Opportunities for Children with Special Needs
How Your Donations Help

Supporting Our Mission
You can support The Kalei Foundation by making a secure online donation. Contributions help fund scholarships that connect children with special needs to inclusive programs & activites.

Directly Impact Lives
Every contribution helps create opportunities for children with special needs to experience activities that build confidence, creativity, and independence.
Your generosity helps remove barriers that prevent families from accessing inclusive programs and therapeutic activities.

Youth Support
Having access to sports, art, music, agricultural programs, etc. can have a meaningful impact on a child's physical health, emotional well-being, communication skills, and self confidence. However, access can be limited due to financial barriers, availability of trained instructors, or geographic location.
Your donations to The Kalei Foundation help remove those barriers. Your contributions support these scholarships needed to allow children with special needs to explore new interests, develop skills and partricipate in activities that enrich their lives.
