$2,033 towards $7,000

UPDATE: ** I personally donated my $2,000 Makana Aloha (pledge) through a corporate matching program, so it will not show up on this page.


Aloha family, friends, and community!

From January through May, Iʻm participating in Hawaiʻi Peopleʻs Fundʻs Giving Project.This is major for me both as a community member of Hawai'i and as the co-founder of Project Koa Yoga (PKY). Project Koa Yoga, my business, is an 2022 HPF grantee and joined the HPF hui (community). So I decided to give back to this network and my 31 grantee peers across 5 islands by joining The Giving Project. For the month of April, I am trying to raise $7,000.00 for The Giving Project. All funds raised will be shared among all grantees and is tax-deductible.

Think about what a well, just, and thriving Hawai’i looks like to you and I bet one of our grantees are doing the work:
  • De-militarization, de-occupation, and anti-imperialism, including youth organizer training to permanently shut down the leaking Red Hill fuel tanks that endanger 93,000 residents' fresh water supply: Koa Futures Initiative of Hawai‘i Peace & Justice
  • Rematriation of our ancestors' bones from museums around the world, and protecting the interred from desecration by hotel developers: Hui Iwi Kuamo‘o

I am asking you to join in my fund-shifting goals as a person who loves, enjoys, and rests here in Hawai'i. I love Hawaiʻi, and many of you do too - this is the way to support the `āina and people you aloha! I encourage you to check out my IG and see some highlights of the grantees - the work folks are doing is MAJOR!

me ke Aloha,

Laura
