We’re the Friends of Koko Head Elementary School.
We support Koko Head’s teachers and staff by raising funds year round to provide Physical Education, Music and Hawaiian Studies as well as school supplies, fun activities and other areas critical to our children’s education.
Our budget for this year is below. We are seeking to raise approximately $56,000 to cover our commitments for the 2017-2018 school year, which works out to a little more than $175 per student. We have three big activities to help us reach this goal:
- Cobra Contribution
- Cookie Corner Cookies
- Cobra Jump
Please see the Donations page for more information on these and other fundraising activities that are going on and how you can help.

Meetings
We meet once a month, usually on the first Monday of each month, from 6:00 – 8:00pm in the school cafeteria. Occasionally scheduling conflicts force us to move the meeting dates, so please be sure to check below for the latest schedule.
Our meetings are relatively informal and are used to provide updates and status on our ongoing fundraisers and events. They are also a time where we welcome any suggestions from the community, so please come with your ideas!
