About Us
vision
Hale Hawai’i’s vision is to inspire hope in residents to envision a life free of COVID19. We do this by implementing necessary measures to keep the virus out of the state so our children can go to school in a healthy environment where they can focus on learning and building relationships. A life where the islands will grow enough food to be able to feed residents. A life where the spirit of aloha can once again overtake fear.
Hale Hawai’i is an agent for positive change in our state. We believe Hawai’i can be healthy and happy during and post-COVID19. We envision a Hawai’i that is self-sufficient, diversified and economically robust. We visualize a Hawaii that can withstand unexpected emergencies, leave a smaller carbon footprint on our islands and be an example to future generations should they also face extreme hardship and unpredictable circumstance. We believe children have a right to be educated in a safe and healthy environment and recognize our keiki and kupuna as invaluable assets to our community that deserve to be cherished and protected.
