Is ReportLost.org official? Does it replace calling the police or going in person?
ReportLost is an independent service that connects you to official channels, not a government agency itself. We file your report with Hawaii County Police, alert transit and airport lost and founds, and post to community networks on your behalf. You're not replacing direct contact, you're streamlining it and keeping your report active longer than if you called once and waited.
