How OKN was born

My photo
O'Hana Kids' News was started by Josh & Heather Ackman, when they were looking for events & activities for their son, Zephaniah, to participate in. Zephaniah, is in a wheelchair, due to his terminal condition of Menkes Syndrome. O'Hana Kids' News was founded in June 2010, when the Ackmans realized that many families were looking for the same information for their children.

CLASSIFIEDS

NEEDED:  AFO's, Braces, Hand Splints, Barely Worn out shoes:  Jamie is my son's guy that does his splints/AFO's.  He goes overseas to fit children who need this equipment, but don't have access to it.  He is a PT, and goes to fit children who have special needs with braces, AFO's and hand splints.  These children have nothing to help them, all the items he takes are donated from families here in the US that have children who have outgrown their equipment.
