Exciting news for our organization and community as we bring forward a community-driven solution! See more at hawaiithriving.com

On Friday, November 5, 2021, The Maui County Council voted unanimously to pass CR21-97, the County Resolution in support of The Hoʻomāhua Initiative!

We would like to thank the guidance of Councilmembers Kelly King and Shane Sinenci in the process to make this happen. We would like to especially acknowledge past Councilmember Elle Cochran who during her term prepared the way four years ago so that a proposal like ours may be approved. Elle has been a great supporter and stakeholder of The Hoʻomāhua Initiative as well.

Maui, we look forward to being of service to the community as we work to bring the vision of The Hoʻomāhua Initiative to life. This is a kākou-everyone initiative where our vision is to harness smart, regenerative, community-based tourism to create thriving communities. See www.hawaiithriving.com
