Welcome to Army Hawaii Youth Sponsorship!
Youth Sponsorship
Just arrived in Hawaii? Or getting ready to leave and
wondering about the new post in Hawaii? If you want to learn more about
the Hawaiian Islands, the Army Child and Youth Services Hawaii, Youth
Sponsorship Program can help you.
We provide a sponsor for family members in grades Kindergarten
- 12th grade. Let us help make your transition a lot more smoother.
General Information
Youth Sponsorship helps
relocate youth to become familiar with their new home in Hawaii. Sponsors are
matched to youth according to their gender, age, and interests. The sponsors
escort incoming youth around the post, school area, and to the Child and Youth
Service Centers. They introduce the new arrival to others within their age/grade
level and to the various activities. There are "Hail and
Farewell" activities for the newly arrived and the soon to depart youth.
These social functions assist in making new friends and saying good-bye to old
ones.
Youth Sponsorship helps to
build life skills and leadership. To check out more information on Army
Child and Youth Services, School-Age Services, and Middle School and Teen
Centers in Hawaii visit the MWR website at:
