Love FOR the LAND of HAWAIʻI

 

is the English translation for Aloha ʻĀina O Hawaiʻi. Aloha ʻĀina o Hawaiʻi, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to perpetuating Hawaiian Culture, Values, Arts, Crafts and Language through educating people of all ages.

With many indigenous cultures, there are various misconceptions brought about by the tourist industry in its efforts to promote its own ends. Thus, another important goal of this non-profit entity is to present an accurate view of the traditional culture of Hawaiʻi, as well as other Polynesian Nations. Despite the expectable differences of these native cultures, there are great similarities among them. We reveal ethnic bonds and links through similarities to Hawaiian culture.
