Keikilani Ho, is married to her husband of 19 years, Ikaika, who is a welder by trade and they have 3 children together. Her oldest son, Jordan was born premature at 25 weeks old, & is the true life character behind her published book called "The Little BIG Miracle", written in honor of Jordan, who is now 20 years old today. Keikilani's daughter, Jeighany is currently in the National Honor Society, and often volunteers alongside her Mom. Her youngest son, Jeanzye-Rush is an aspiring Pilot, who loves space exploration, and plays football as a running back with JPS Sports in Hawai'i. Keikilani has 2 dogs who she absolutely adores, named "Pomaika'i" because he was a blessing to their family, and "Stitch" who she adopted during the pandemic from a woman who sadly lost her job and had to relocate out of Hawai'i.

 

Keikilani is the middle child of 5 girls, who she has a very close relationship with. Her mother, Ronica-Ann raised Keikilani and her sisters at a very young age to serve their community, and to be a great listener to those who need to be heard. She is a very intuitive, compassionate, and empathetic leader who has dedicated a majority of her life to community service with, and without recognition. She believes her life purpose is to help and protect others because it brings her joy.

 

Keikilani is very creative, innovative, and honest, and she has helped many businesses over the years, grow, with her out of the box ideas. She is a great team leader, and delegator who knows how to utilize people's talents and passions so they are in positions where they will thrive.

 

Keikilani has served in various organizations over the years such as Red Cross, Junior Olympics, Hawai'i Food Bank, Hawai'i Health and Harm Reduction Center, American Heart Association, HUGS Organization, and has served at various church homeless outreaches. Homelessness is dear to Keikilani, as her grandmother who suffered from Alzheimers, Dementia and homelessness, died in the streets of downtown, Honolulu when she was young. 

​

In 2020, when the pandemic first hit Hawai'i, Keikilani and her Ohana garnered the support of their community to raise funds to help purchase hand sanitizers, hand lotions, and masks for Hawai'i's healthcare and front line workers, and distributed it to hospitals, health care clinics, and grocery stores for grocery clerks. She and her family also organized and collaborated with small businesses to start a "Back to School" drive where they collected backpacks and school supply donations, and met recipients from all over Oahu, to distribute them. During the Maui Wildfire, through social media, Keikilani provided resources, such as legal help, mental health recovery, pet help, aided in collecting donations for Maui Ohana, as well aided in collecting lunch boxes for Maui Keiki. A few years ago, Keikilani helped to raise funds in honor of her birthday, to support a local dog shelter. Keikilani and her Ohana also helped build a shower for the beautiful people of Pu'uhonua o Waianae, where she met a little boy who she and her family was able take on field trips, and now call their hanai son. 

 

 Keikilani's vision for Hawai'i is to see hope, trust and righteousness restored into government. She believes that if there is a trusted government, Hawai'i can thrive. She is running for office because she is capable of being a trusted leader that will not only listen to her constituents but also support, implement and bring their ideas to life. Keikilani can be trusted to make hard decisions that will prosper Hawai'i's families and businesses.
