We Love Lāna‘i Youth

The Lānaʻi Youth Center is where the future is shaped — one young person at a time. We offer the best kids programs on Lānaʻi for youth empowerment with a wide variety of activities from cultural workshops and environmental education to sports, music, and mentorship. And through it all, the mission remains the same: to empower Lānaʻi’s youth with the tools, confidence and community to achieve their potential.

Where Keiki Learn, Grow & Thrive – All for Free

Members can drop-in to the Lānaʻi Youth Center to access some of the best kids programs on the island, Parents/guardians can add restrictions, and kids can opt in or out of any activity. Our services are free of charge to the community. We rely on the generosity of friends like you to fund what we do.

Membership gives keiki access to safe, supervised and cool activities — completely free for members of the Lānaʻi Youth Center. We’re here to support youth development, creativity and connection in a fun, welcoming space.
