About Volunteer Month Hawaiʻi
Volunteer Week Hawaiʻi launched in 2018 as our local take on National Volunteer Week (celebrated annually since 1974) and has since become the largest volunteer focused campaign in Hawaiʻi and the largest state level celebration of National Volunteer Week in the United States.
As a result of our impact on Hawaii’s communities the Hawaii State Legislature recognized us in an official House Resolution in 2018. In 2019 Governor Ige and Mayors Caldwell, Kim, Kawakami, and Victorino issued Proclamations in support of Volunteer Week Hawaii. In 2022, Governor Ige signed our bill to recognize April as Volunteer Month in Hawaiʻi beginning in 2023.
This statewide, cross-sector campaign brings together residents, visitors, nonprofits, businesses, schools, and government agencies in a concerted effort to take grassroots action that serves our communities.
Our collective impacts and volunteer hours are captured through our custom volunteer management platform and we produce annual reports that outline high points for service both during April during Volunteer Month Hawaiʻi and throughout the year.
