Please help Kauai Community Radio stay on the air by contributing what you can to their Fall Pledge Drive which runs now through the 18th. They’re a great local radio station on Kauai and rely on support of listeners… local and global. In the need for some good local music, make sure you tune in and listen live!

Your support makes community radio possible. There are many ways that you can help us to support community grown radio. Whether its an individual or business donation, volunteering your time or donating membership gifts, KKCR greatly appreciates your contributions. Members receive a plethora of island benefits as well as cd’s, and other gifts based on the level of membership. Individuals or businesses can also donate gift certificates, goods or services that we will then give away on the air as incentive gifts for membership. Donations of food for our hungry volunteers during the membership drive are also welcome. Remember, KKCR is a 501c3, non-profit organization which means that your donations are tax deductible. For more information on any of these options, please call the office at (808) 826-7774.

For the keiki…

In perusing the internet for something fun for the keiki (kids), I came across Doublebrush.com. Full of all kinds of cool homemade candles and body products with island flair, this website has all kinds of great gifts for the holidays or to pamper yourself.

One thing that caught my eye were the Keiki Finger Puppet Postcards of Hawaiian Endangered Species. I got one of each and was excited to see detail of each animal which was hand drawn by one of the owners, Cheryl. The color drawings are on the front with little dotted lines for the parents to cut out the holes where the child’s fingers go. On the back is a bit of information about that animal like its Hawaiian name, where it lives and what it eats. These postcards can be purchased ahead of a trip and sent as a souvenir to a special child in your life or just as a fun thing to buy your child and sneak some education in at the same time! They cost either $1.25 each or you can get the set of four for $4.95. Each card is packaged in a protective plastic sleeve bag and comes with directions. Head on over to Doublebrush.com and pick up these adorable postcard finger puppets for your keiki!
