Our Misson

At the Kona Coast Heritage Foundation, our mission is to preserve, honor, and share the rich cultural heritage, agricultural traditions, and natural beauty of Hawai‘i’s Kona Coast. Rooted in the spirit of aloha and the guiding principles of mālama ‘āina (caring for the land) and ho‘okipa (hospitality), we strive to nurture an enduring connection between people, culture, and the ‘āina (land).
We are committed to safeguarding sacred sites, perpetuating traditional Hawaiian practices, and celebrating Hawai‘i’s unique agricultural heritage, including the globally cherished legacy of Kona coffee. Through immersive education, conservation initiatives, and community engagement, we empower individuals—young and old—to embrace their role as stewards of Hawai‘i’s stories, traditions, and landscapes.
