Join Wilson Cluney, one of the founders of the Kokua Educational and Therapy Fund, as he shares the inspiring story behind this life-changing nonprofit organization. Based in Tampa, Florida, the Kokua Fund was established in June 2023 with a heartfelt mission driven by personal experience. Wilson and his family, grappling with the challenges of raising their son Ryder who has Phelan-McDermid Syndrome and is on the autism spectrum, recognized the need for more support for families like theirs.
'Kokua', meaning help, assistance, or relief in Hawaiian, perfectly encapsulates the essence of their mission. The fund aims to bridge the financial gap for families of children with special needs, ensuring access to essential therapies, educational support, and quality care. Rooted in Native Hawaiian ancestry, the organization intertwines its cultural heritage with its noble cause.
There are three main ways to support the Kokua Fund: donating, volunteering, and spreading the word. Donations are crucial for the organization to continue providing services, while volunteers play a key role in their special events. Spreading awareness is equally important for their growth and ability to help more families.
Get involved and make a difference in the lives of children with special needs.

Together, we can create a more inclusive and supportive world for these special children and their families.
