We envision our HOPE edutainment service impacting education for inclusivity of native stories and perspectives. Teachers will be able to provide a richer understanding of culture and acceptance for indigenous communities. Subscription-based services will drive content development and support indigenous communities.
We envision our Ka Momi Cultural Productions bringing to stage the stories and history of the Kanaka Maoli-Native Hawaiian community. Productions shall be from Kanaka Maoli sourced materials interpreted by Kanaka Maoli teachers, cultural experts, and artists.
