Keep Vivistop Honolulu's Doors Open!

*Updated February 21st, 2025*

Aloha!

We are Vivistop Honolulu, a free creative studio for kids in the heart of Kakaako. We provide facilities, mentors, and tools for kids to envision, plan, and create projects they are passionate about.

Our mission is to spark creativity and innovation in Hawaii’s children by offering an inspiring learning environment with modern tools and resources.

We emphasize serving the local community, and we have empowered children from diverse backgrounds to explore their creativity and develop valuable skills. We aim to build a world where every child has the opportunity to explore, create, and collaborate.

For the first 2 years after officially opening, we provided free access to all, operating as a privately-funded international initiative, breaking down economic and social barriers. Last year we had to transition to a nonprofit entity (501(c)(3))* due to the loss of funding. We have been seeking local partners, donors, and sponsors to keep our doors open, and are in dire need of funding. If we do not find funding very very soon, we will be forced to close our doors at the end of April this year (2025). Please help us continue to empower our young creators!

We want to thank those of you who have continued to pour in so much love and support into our organization, and we hope to continue on with this dream!
