Community Citizenship
The vastness of the universe shows us that we are part of something greater than ourselves, that everything is interlaced. Community is a microcosm of that infinite and intricate connectivity, and it is through this lens that we feel a strong sense of responsibility to do our part in helping Hawai’i Island thrive.
