Hawai'i Conservation Alliance Foundation

Hawai'i Conservation Alliance Foundation A partnership dedicated to environmental stewardship, community engagement, and conservation capacity

The Hawai‘i Conservation Alliance Foundation (HCAF) is a non-profit organization established to actively promulgate information on Hawai‘i’s conservation values and needs, fund conservation grants, and promote conservation education and awareness in Hawai‘i. It was founded by members of the Hawai‘i Conservation Alliance, a collaboration of 24 agencies, educational institutions, and non-profit orga

nizations whose mission is to provide unified leadership and advocacy on conservation issues critical to Hawai‘i. The HCA envisions sustainable communities built upon a foundation of Hawaiian values and actively perpetuating thriving lands and seas. During the last week of July, the HCAF and HCA annually host the Hawai‘i Conservation Conference, bringing together the largest gathering of people actively involved in the protection and management of Hawai‘i’s natural environment.
