Hui Huliau is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) Native Hawaiian Organization (NHO) and community service organization whose business activities principally benefit Native Hawaiians. As an NHO we operate under U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA) regulations and own small businesses that participate in the SBA 8(a) Business Development Program.
Profits from Hui Huliau’s for-profit subsidiaries help sustain important education, social, economic, and cultural preservation programs that serve Native Hawaiians in the Waianae community. The Waianae Coast on the western side of the island of Oahu has the highest per capita percentage of Native Hawaiians in the world and the highest poverty and unemployment rate in the State of Hawaii.
Since April 2017, Hui Huliau has provided over $27.7M* in benefits to Native Hawaiians in the areas of:
-
Health, Social, and Cultural Support
-
Education and Development
-
Lands
-
Economic and Community Development
-
Employment
-

-
Other
Examples include creating employment opportunities, providing grants to Native Hawaiian language schools and cultural preservation programs, and donating computers for disadvantaged students and public schools. Our contributions are ongoing and increase as we grow our organization.
