Mālama Kaua‘i is currently seeking nonprofit partners interested in hosting distribution sites for Kaukau 4 Keiki meal boxes for Summer 2026 as we continue to grow and expand the reach of the program!
Partners must have availability on Monday afternoons for 9 weeks, from June 1st through July 27th and commit to the entire program. Areas that do not yet have a confirmed distribution location include: North shore (Kilauea/Hanalei), Kapa‘a, Wailua, Līhu‘e, Puhi, Hanapepe/‘Ele‘ele, Kōloa, and Kekaha.
Partner sites should have:
- 1-2 dedicated representatives who will have responsibility for the site following procedures and policies of the program, ensuring compliance, handling paperwork submissions, and training/overseeing volunteers as needed
- A large capacity vehicle, such as a van, to pickup boxes from our Līhu‘e hub and bring to your site for distribution to approved and enrolled ‘ohana
- An accessible distribution site with access to bathrooms/hand washing and enough area for a drive-through style pickup by parents (or we may be able to place you at a school or community center location)
A small weekly stipend is paid to partners to help cover expenses related to fuel and staff time to pickup the boxes.
If interested, please email kaukau@malamakauai.org
