Keiki Heroes Ambassadors

Who are Keiki Heroes Ambassadors?

Keiki Heroes Ambassadors are older keiki (6th – 12th grade) who have the Keiki Heroes “super powers.” They model and teach younger keiki how to exercise their own super powers like washing their hands properly, wearing a mask the right way, respecting the bubble with others, etc.

They help to fulfill the Keiki Heroes’ mission:

• Educate and empower keiki to adopt healthy practices that protect themselves and adults who care for them to reduce spread of COVID-19.

They keep in mind the Keiki Heroes values:

• Kindness and compassion, fun, positive (“do” rather than “don’t do”)
• The feelings that they help younger keiki have are optimism and courage

What do Keiki Heroes Ambassadors do?

Write, draw, create videos, poems, songs, etc. about…

• Kai, Hōkū, Ola, and Laulima
