How does NHP uplift Native Hawaiian communities?
Here are 3 core ways we support Native-led movements across Hawaiʻi:

1️⃣ Funding Support for Native Hawaiian Organizations:
We invest in NHOs rooted in culture, place, and community — ensuring that resources flow directly to Native-led solutions.

2️⃣ Amplifying Native Hawaiian Voices:
Through storytelling, digital media, and in-person convenings, we elevate the work and impact of NHOs across local and national platforms.

3️⃣ Advocating for Systems Change:
We engage funders, policymakers, and philanthropic networks to shift power to Indigenous leadership and build lasting equity in Hawaiʻi and beyond.

July 31 is Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea — Sovereignty Restoration Day.

But it’s more than a historical date — it’s a celebration of Ea: life, breath, and the enduring sovereignty of our people.

In 1843, after an illegal five-month occupation by the British, Hawaiian independence was formally restored. Kamehameha III proclaimed: “Ua mau ke ea o ka ʻāina i ka pono” — the life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness.

Today, this phrase lives on as a call to action. Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea is not just about the past — it’s about how we carry Ea forward. Through culture, community, and collective resistance, we continue to affirm that Ea is still alive.

🌺 Let’s honor the history and the movement.
