Kualoa-Heʻeia Ecumenical Youth Project was founded in 1968 through the efforts of churches, community residents, and social service agencies. Several ministers saw the need for an agency to serve low-income, at-risk youth in semi-rural areas from Kualoa Point to Heʻeia. Equipped with support from the Episcopal, Methodist, and Catholic churches along with private trusts and foundations, these community leaders accepted the responsibility of caring for the youth in their community. Over time, KEY Project has expanded service to a wide spectrum of community members from keki to kupuna, and from individual members to large organizations who regularly enjoy using KEY Project facilities for their programs and gatherings.
The mission of KEY Project is to nurture and promote the cultural, environmental, social, economic, and recreational well-being of the Kualoa-Heʻeia area by providing a vital grassroots civic resource that effectively serves the needs of our diverse multicultural community.

The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is a national network of local groups of volunteers engaging local communities to strengthen public health, reduce vulnerability, build resilience, and improve preparedness, response and recovery capabilities. The Hawaii MRC operates under the Hawaii State Department of Health. In a disaster, MRC volunteers may be activated to provide surge capacity to DOH and other emergency management partners. MRC members may assist in shelters, help distribute medicines, or provide information and assistance to the community in other ways as needed. MRC volunteers attend orientation and quarterly meetings and participate in relevant training activities as their schedule allows. Volunteers are invited to participate in preparedness exercises, community health activities, flu clinics, vision screening clinics, health fairs, and other events. Due to Hawai‘i's geographic isolation, Hawai‘i’s communities must be self-sufficient and resilient, particularly when disaster strikes, and the MRC helps those communities when they need it most. Several of MRC members will be at HMC aid stations to help with anyone who needs medical attention!
