Focus is on health at FilCom in Waipahu

 •  Japan for the keiki

Advertiser Staff

Free hepatitis B & C screenings and other health assessments will be offered at the Hawaii Community Health Fair, from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. today at the Filipino Community Center in Waipahu.

All are invited to the event, and those of Asian and Pacific-islander ancestry — groups that have the highest rates of hepatitis B — are especially urged to attend.

There'll also be free food, entertainment and information on other health matters.

Radio station KNDI will broadcast live from the event so that those who can't attend can still hear the entertainment and speakers.

Wondering where to park? A shuttle will run from Waipahu District Park on Paiwa Street and Waikele Community Park on Lumi'aina Street to the FilCom Center from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. There's limited parking at the FilCom Center, the nearby Waipahu Civic Center building and the Waipahu United Church of Christ. 221-6204
