The recent impact of Hurricane Lala has devastated the Ka‘ū district and has affected many communities across Hawai‘i Island. We continue to send our aloha, mana‘o maika‘i, and prayers to our haumāna, ‘ohana, and staff who have experienced loss, disruption, and hardship as they begin the difficult process of recovery and rebuilding. Please join us by making a gift to support Ke Kula ‘o Kamehameha haumāna, ‘ohana, and staff impacted by Hurricane Lala. These contributions will help provide assistance to these members as they address immediate needs and begin the longer journey toward recovery.

KS Hawai‘i Educational Resiliency Fund

Kahua of
kuleana

Ke Ali‘i Pauahi envisioned education as a means to empower ‘ōiwi leaders and, through their contributions, help ensure a thriving and self-determined future for our lāhui. More than a century later, that vision continues to guide the work of Ke Kula ‘o Kamehameha and its independent fundraising arm, the Pauahi Foundation. Ke Ali‘i Pauahi embraced her kuleana to her people as her royal charge predetermined by the generations of ali‘i that led before her. By fulfilling that kuleana, she established a kahua: a foundation for haumāna to stand on that they are called to grow and strengthen throughout their lives.
