Making an Impact

Project Waiwai is an app/platform which uses the concept of the flow of water from mauka to makai as a framework for families to think about money as a resource. This helps participants draw connections between their cultural values and the purpose and benefit of learned wealth building strategies.

This project gives people a process to create connections, so that they will be able to collaborate and find novel solutions to highly divisive issues.

The ‘Oihana Career Exploration Courses project aims to empower Hawai‘i’s youth through interactive online courses featuring local professionals. It integrates real-world insights from various fields into the local educational curriculum, enhancing students’ understanding of career pathways and fostering informed career decisions.

This campaign is reaching out to the 250,000 Hawai‘i residents who previously attended a University of Hawai‘i campus but did not earn a credential and encourages them to return and complete their degree.

The Safe Spaces & Workplaces Initiative (SSWP) is a Child & Family Service (CFS) and One Shared Future (OSF) partnership to address workplace sexual harassment in Hawaiʻi.

The Social Impact Incubator Program develops the whole entrepreneur for a sustainable Hawai‘i. It is a five-month, cohort-based experience where participants build strong relationships with each other and with local innovators, dive deep on technical skill sets, access seed funding, and engage in meaningful, one-to-one mentorship.
