## What is Aloha Critter Club?

Aloha Critter Club is a safe, teacher-moderated platform that brings animal welfare education to elementary classrooms.  Built for the Aloha Critter Club nonprofit, students share photos and short reflections from their hands-on work caring for animals — from classroom critters to local shelters and farms. Teachers review every post before it appears, and parents can follow their child's club through observer accounts.

 WHAT STUDENTS CAN DO                                                                  
  • Post photos and voice notes from club activities                               
  • Comment on classmates' posts (with teacher approval)        
                        
  WHAT TEACHERS CAN DO
  • Approve student posts and comments before they appear
  • Manage class rosters and invite codes
  • Share curriculum-aligned animal welfare content
  • Message students and parents privately

  WHAT PARENTS CAN DO
  • Follow their child's club as a verified observer
  • See moderated posts and milestones
  • Stay connected to the classroom without being on social media

  SAFE BY DESIGN
  • Teacher moderation on every post and comment
  • No public feed — content stays inside each club
  • No advertising, ever
  • Built by a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving Hawaii's keiki

  Aloha Critter Club is free for participating schools.
