Kau‘i Kanaka‘ole

Executive Director – Ala Kukui

Hāna, Maui

Hāna through and through. You will not find a more true expression of aloha for one's home, community, and kupuna than Kauʻi. She shares the stories of her people, the ʻāina and culture through her work as a kumu hula and at her cultural retreat, Ala Kakui. For Kauʻi, “My drive and motivation was to make this more of a place where our community can thrive; a place not only for the people of Hāna to experience healing but sharing as well. If you are able to feed your whole community, that light cannot help but shine outwards.”
