Representatives from the Pearl City Shopping Center (PCSC) Merchants Association presented Momilani Elementary School Principal Mrs. Doreen Higa with a donation of 10 – $100.00 PCSC gift certificates in front of the Momilani faculty, staff, student body, and parents who were in attendance on Thursday during the schools first assembly of the new school year.
The Momilani Elementary School, PCSC gift certificate presentation is the first of two Pearl City District Complex Elementary Schools that will receive financial support from the Pearl City Shopping Center Merchants Association during the 2013-2014 school year. Manana Elementary School will also receive a donation of 10 – $100 PCSC gift certificates in the month of August.
"The very generous donation of $1000 worth of Pearl City Shopping Center gift certificates will go a long way in supporting our students during the school year," said Momilani Elementary School Principal Mrs. Doreen Higa.
Two out of eight Pearl City District Complex Elementary Schools are awarded PCSC gift certificate donations each year. The donations rotate amongst the eight schools. The PCSC gift certificates are redeemable at any participating Pearl City Shopping Center merchant.
The PCSC Merchants Association also supports Pearl City High School's Project Graduation and Pearl City Chargers Athletics with cash donations to their programs.
Donations to Pearl City District Complex Schools by the PCSC Merchants Association are presented annually at the beginning of the new school year as a gesture of appreciation and a way of giving back to the community for supporting the businesses at the Pearl City Shopping Center.
Their success opens the door for the PCSC merchants to identify and fully support the needs of thousands of Pearl City students as their schools face tough economic times that continue to profoundly impact school budgets and important school programs.
Next stop, Manana Elementary School!
