ʻOhana & Kaiāulu
Family & Community Strengthening Program
Each month, the HMKF ʻOhana Program coordinates an ʻohana activity specifically for the families of our after-school program students. It's all about providing an opportunity for our families to interact with one another in a positive way and encouraging everyone to be thoughtful while spending quality time together.
The HMKF 'Ohana Program also provides programming to the community at-large. We coordinate and host events that encourage our neighbors to join us in perpetuating cultural practices, strengthening family ties and helping us to build a stronger community.
- Hoʻoikaika ka ʻohana: Strengthen the ties of our ʻohana through Hawaiian cultural activities. |
Workshops and classes that nurture and promote family balance, unity, and harmony are available to ʻohana enrolled in HMK programs as well as the community at-large. |

Back in the Spring of 2012, Hui Mālama O Ke Kai (HMK) celebrated the completion of it's first Board and Stone Class - supporting the vision of a “board and stone in every home". To support and encourage the continuation of cultural learning and ʻohana strengthening, HMK initiated Kuʻi Kalo Night - an event hosted monthly by HMK to provide the space and opportunity for families to have a “family night" together. Keiki are pre-occupied with hands-on learning, void of electronics - iPhones, tablets, etc. Mākua are reminded of how to spend uninterrupted quality time with their children. All are inspired to be “present" during the event.
Hesitant to join us because you do not have your own board and stone? No worry! HMK has the tools and supplies you will need to kuʻi ʻai (pound food). Staff will cook the kalo ahead of time so that all attending ʻohana need to do is clean and kuʻi (pound) their kalo!
