Our Founderʻs Motto
Papahana Aloha ʻĀina Hawaiʻi was incorporated and determined a non-profit organization in 2019. It was the brainchild of a young Hawaiian girl who in 2015 at age 9 made, "E Aloha ʻĀina - Care for our land, our ocean, and our people" her platform. From this motto, Papahana Aloha ʻĀina Hawaiʻi was born.

OUR MISSION
To safeguard, nurture and grow our natural resources by developing educated, community-minded and engaged, contributing leaders of advocacy and stewardship.
Although Papahana Aloha ʻĀina Hawaiʻi was formed in 2019, due to the COVID pandemic, formal activities and consistent meetings under the non-profit did not commence until February 2021. Since 2021, Papahana Aloha ʻĀina Hawaiʻi has been busy in the community, living and promoting aloha ʻāina. Built upon our values and guided by our vision, we uphold our mission to safeguard, nurture and grow our natural resources by developing educated, community-minded and engaged, contributing leaders of advocacy and stewardship.
