A Life of Service
Sep. 24, 2014
Masaru Oshiro was a teenager when Pearl Harbor was attacked. His parents, aliens, lost their land ,adjacent to Pearl Harbor, to confiscation. His first volunteer work wa with Korean War veterans. He served in the US Army, came home, went to UH, got masters degree in social work. He worked in Dept of Human Services when it still oversaw prisons, etc. Stepped down, when governor considered reinstating death penalty; he felt as part of admin, he could not publicly disagree with his governor. He worked for 12 years at the Queen LiliÊ»uokalani Children’s Center, where he served as social worker and executive director. Masaru, fellow UH social work alumni and Honnpa Hongwanji Living Treasures Myron “Pinky” Thompson, Likeke Paglinawan and others recognized that clients didn’t respond well to classic western social work methods, They resurrected ancient healing practices and helped create the classic two-volume resource Nana I Ke Kumu (Look to the Source), which is still widely used. He felt that the leadership of the Center should be led by a native Hawaiian, and so groomed Haunani Apoliona to replace him. He worked as head of behavioral (mental) health at the State Health Department. He was named Social Worker of the Year three times by the National Association of Social Work, recognized by Elizabeth Dole for his American Red Cross work and twice listed in Men and Women of HawaiÊ»i. He headed Red Cross mental health efforts in Hawaii and on missions to 911, airplane disasters and hurricanes for years. He was a dutiful only son, and took care of his mother into her 103rd year. He remains a dutiful husband, father, grandfather and friend

The object of the Rotary Dictionary Project is to give every student a personal dictionary of their very own that will serve them at least through elementary and middle school. For many, this is the first book that they own. Even in this age of computers, a dictionary has value-- it is easy to use and students can write in it. Many teachers see this as a key to better reading, speech, and writing. These skills will improve student performance in other subjects as well. Volunteers give a lesson on how to use the dictionary and briefly explain Rotary service in the community and around the world. |

It used to be that all public school children's eyes were tested by the school nurse or someone with such skills who visited the schools on a regular basis. Then as it periodically does, the state ran into financial difficulties and simply stopped giving these examinations. The Rotary Keiki Vision program provides a simplified screening test for near vision, far vision, and stereo vision as well as a check list of readily observable eye conditions. The screening is simple enough that volunteers can be trained to do it readily especially if they are paired with experienced volunteers. |

Often, a child is not aware that he or she is having trouble with vision. They're young and probably don't even realize that their sight might be impaired. Through Keiki Vision, we go into schools, do very basic vision screening and send notes home to parents of those children who should have a follow up exam by a eye health care professional. At a recent school screening, 25 of the 33 children screened were found to need further examinations. Volunteers report that it's fun, and does not require advanced training. Dr. Cedric Mitsui keeps us on the straight path on this one. |
