Congratulations to our 5th Kuleana Academy Cohort!

A warm and heartfelt congratulations to our 5th Kuleana Academy cohort! Thank you all for joining us for the first ever online Kuleana Academy. We’re so inspired by each of your unique gifts and deep commitment to Hawaiʻi’s land and people. We’re so excited to have you all as a part of our KA alumni community and know that each of you are already accomplished leaders destined for more great things. We look forward to seeing all that you accomplish for your communities.   

We’d also like to express our deepest gratitude towards the incredible trainers, speakers, education alliance partners, and special guests we’ve had throughout the program, as well as our online graduation keynote speaker, former Gov. John Waiheʻe. The knowledge and wisdom you’ve all graciously shared will continue to live on through these change makers.

If you know someone who would benefit from Kuleana Academy, encourage them to apply before April 1st!
