SUPPORT US

The liko or bud is the beginning stages of the life of the ʻōhiʻa lehua blossom and represents Pūlama Nā Likoʻs foundation as a resource in cultural learning. As with our youth, the liko needs nurturing and support to blossom beautifully and sturdy. The liko reminds us of our humble beginnings and serves as our guide and inspiration to help others as we pass on the knowledge and experiences we have gained.

WHAT IS MY DONATION SUPPORTING?

Our programs are significant and have the potential for long term benefits. It's not just an "introduction" or a one time experience. For many, it has made a positive impact on their lives. Our programs allowed members of our community and beyond to explore new skills and passions and discover a sense of self, all while instilling the values, customs, discipline, and appreciation of Hawaiian and Polynesian culture. We nurture those who have a desire to learn and grow (not only) into better people but better role models for future generations. Our programs give people - including school-aged children, college-bound students, Hawaiian culture practitioners, kupuna (elders), and disadvantaged families - opportunities to excel, explore new experiences, and to live their dream.

Your donation will directly support the organization in the following ways:

  • Provide need-based student scholarships for classes and workshops to help the disadvantaged within the community.

  • Advance training and presentations for theatre and stage productions in the cultural arts.

  • Maintain the operations of our cultural learning center.

  • Support our fundraising efforts and more!
