We held intimate gatherings to bless our two newest locations on Oʻahu, Pūnana Leo o Nuʻuanu and Pūnana Leo o Waialua. We were so grateful to have founding board member, Larry Kimura, lead us in the traditional Hawaiian blessings.

At Pūnana Leo o Nuʻuanu, board member Keawe Lopes, as well as one of our treasured native speakers from the island of Niʻihau, ʻAnakē Lolena Nicholas, joined us to celebrate and honor the significant milestone of growth in our community. Mahalo nui to all of our staff and ʻohana who contributed to this special occasion.

A very special mahalo goes to First Hawaiian Bank Foundation for their generous grant of $50,000.
