Aloha!  

ʿŌlelo is pleased to announce the launch of our 14th Annual Youth Xchange Statewide Student Video Competition.

As the State’s largest student video competition, Youth Xchange continues to grow.  Last year’s record breaking 909 entries was quite an accomplishment, but even more impressing was the breadth and depth of the messaging behind each entry.  Thank you for continuing to encourage your students to focus and speak out on issues of concern to them.
