Here at Kahana & Co Designs, we have a goal;  make beautiful things to make people feel good, and then donate all of the profits to help children in need. 

When we started in 2012, we supported local CASA offices (Court Appointed Special Advocates) across the country.  In 2018, we started a new project; to provide beautiful new educational books to foster children.  With the help of a special grant project from Usborne Books and More, every dollar we donate is matched 50%.  The books we purchase are then sent to organizations across the country where they are distributed to children in foster care.

On any given day, there are over 400,000 children in foster care in the United States. When those children are first placed into a foster home, they are scared and they are worried and they come with very few belongings and very seldom a book.

The gift of a book can help in so many ways during a time that can be filled with so much uncertainty. A book can offer a temporary escape, bring some small comfort, companionship, emotional support, academic help and possibly be the only tangible possession they have.

We have also partnered with Compassion International to sponsor children in poverty in Haiti, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Columbia, Togo, Tanzania and Ghana.  

It is important to us to do whatever we can in big ways or small ways, to help children in need.  Your support makes it all possible.  Every gift you purchase, for yourself or others, helps children in the U.S. and around the world.

We thank you for that.  The world is just a little bit better because of you.
