Hand-made stone jewelry to support the people of Hawaii



PRIOR BENEFICIARIES
In addition to trading my jewelry for gofundme donations with friends and family and by word of mouth, I have donated items to the fundraising efforts of other people and organizations who work to support the people of Hawaii and to preserve Hawaiian culture and arts.
I have contributed items to the following fund raisers:
Lanialoha Lee and the Aloha Center in Chicago

Tina Gleason-Eggert and Hana Lima by Momilani

I am also going to start setting up a booth at local farmer's markets around my home in Cedar Lake, Indiana. The first one will be on Wednesday August 14th at the Cedar Lake Farmer's Market, and I hope to do one about every month. Dates and locations will be posted here.

Ultimately, I hope to find a way to work with the Wai'anae Boat Harbor homeless camp known as Pu'uhonua o Wai'anae on the island of Oahu. The Pu'uhonua o Wai'anae story is an incredible example of how people can live productive lives in a homeless encampment and still keep their dignity and raise a family in a safe and secure environment even without electricity or running water.
