Hoʻomaikaʻi Kuleana Academy Alumni !!!
Mahalo to each and every one of you voted in this election. Your engagement is vital in shaping the future of Hawaiʻi.
Running for elected office is no joke.
To run a serious campaign takes dedication, vulnerability, sacrifice, and heart. Win or lose, we want to mahalo all of our Kuleana Academy alums who stepped up to run. Your example inspires us to keep rising to our island communities' challenges.
To all the candidates and campaign supporters who knocked on doors, sign-waved, and sacrificed time away from their families and loved ones…We see you!!! Mahalo for your hard work and commitment to a better Hawai’i for all. It is a win for everyone that, to date, 12 KA alums are serving in office from various County Councils to the State Legislature. We wish you all the best in your new leadership roles!
