Rooting for Grassroots!

Join me in reimagining philanthropy in Hawaiʻi!

Aloha!

From January through May, Iʻm participating in Hawaiʻi Peopleʻs Fundʻs Giving Project alongside 20 other curious and committed folx seeking to radically transform the way we move money to movements for real change from the roots up. This innovative, inclusive, intentional vessel provides safe and brave spaces for collaborations between diverse groups of people, bringing together shared values, passions, and abilities that center around intergenerational progress and socio-cultural wellbeing.

The Giving Project interweaves a cross-class, cross-race, gender-diverse, intergenerational collective that shares a vision for a just and equitable Hawaiʻi to apply our time, talent, and resources to supporting movements for social change by uplifting, advocating for, and raising funds to support HPFʻs community partners who are combatting systems of oppression everyday. Our hui is working together virtually and in-person to learn about and connect with grassroots organizations here at home, deepening our understanding of Hawaiʻi’s unique history and contemporary social justice principles, and engaging in collective liberation learning and practices to amplify and illuminate social change efforts throughout our pae ʻāina.

I love Hawaiʻi, and i knew i wanted to participate in something meaningful to advance social justice in the islands. That's why I created a fundshifter to share my journey with my ʻohana and friends,—and you can be a part of it.

That's why I created a fundraiser to support Hawaii Peoples Fund. Their campaign to move much needed resources will ensure a just and equitable Hawaiʻi—and you can be a part of it.
