I just read This story about a University of Wisconsin Football player from Kona thats family will soon be homeless.
Breaks my heart when I hear these stories of working families that still end up homeless.
I am a native Hawaiian currently attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I received a full ride athletic scholarship to play football at the University of Wisconsin. It is very difficult for me to concentrate on football and school, knowing that my family is going through legal hardships in Hawaii.....Currently my father is the only source of income for my family. He supports my family the best he can. It brings tears to my eyes to hear that my father’s hard work turned to heartache as he was told that my family had until February 1st to clear their things and leave the place we call home.... Hard working Hawaiians should never be evicted from their homes, especially those on Hawaiian homelands.....
