About the event
Hana Lima: ʻĀina-Based Service-Learning Day at Waipao
Join Papahana Kuaola for a morning of hands-on learning, shared experiences, and giving back to the ʻāina that brings us together.
Made possible through the generous support of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA), Hana Lima invites individuals and ʻohana of all ages to spend a meaningful morning at Waipao in Heʻeia.
Through ʻāina-based service-learning, participants will explore Hawaiian cultural practices, environmental stewardship, and the importance of caring for the land and resources that sustain our communities.
Whether you're joining us for the first time or returning to Waipao, there's a place for everyone to learn, serve, and connect.
