Here’s an excerpt from the article:
Youth encouraging other youth to lend a helping hand in their communities is a great idea, right? That’s what Dylan Mollway thinks, and his thinking has taken him pretty far. The 18-year-old Punahou senior, along with friends Aaron Jomo, Monica Arnold, Landon Nagata and James Petranik, founded Go Green Generation earlier this year, a non-profit dedicated to this very cause which is already making its mark in the Island community.

In fact, on Memorial Day (May 25) Go Green Generation has partnered with a California-based company, The Legacy Movement, to present “The Legacy Showcase,” a concert at the Japanese Cultural Center benefiting the Hawaii Foodbank. Featured performers include Ten Feet, B.E.T., Danny Carvalho, Brittney and Joshua Mendoza, Jasmin Idica, EZLiving, All Time HI and Last Minute. In addition to the entertainers, there will be a Legacy Movement T-shirt booth, product sampling, silent auction and food stations. The event is from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the JCCH Manoa Grand Ballroom. Sponsorship packages are available and individual tickets cost $10 in advance or $12 at the door. Purchase tickets by calling 778-1754 or by emailing legacyshow-case@gmail.com. Special edition “Legacy Showcase” T-shirts are for sale online at http://www.thelegacymovement.com.

Young Hawaii natives turned California residents make up The Legacy Movement, a company whose mission is to inspire other young people through fashion to start legacies of their own and do things to impact their communities in a positive way. The Legacy Movement creates and sells inspirational apparel, featuring bold, artistic designs with meaningful messages about the environment, donating to charity and more.

“Brian Chung designed the T-shirts (for the concert), he’s the head of Legacy Movement,” says Mollway. “He’s coached me for how to handle my team and how to inspire. He has done so much for us. We would not be where we are without him. He’s 21 or 22, a sophomore or junior in college.”
