Creating Ohana on Campus
“Ohana means Family. Family means that no one gets left behind.” This is a quote from Disney’s Lilo and Stitch. We chose the word Ohana for our CARP event “Ohana Talk” because our vision and motto for our chapter is to create a family-like environment where the participants are able to feel a lot of love and a place where they would want to come back to. Just like the great state of Hawaii, CARP Hawaii greatly treasures family.
