KoaMana · The People's Tribe
Give First. Build Together. Prosper Together.
KoaMana is a Native Hawaiian Organization on Maui 
. We build businesses so that their success returns to Native Hawaiian families 
and communities 
.
The People's Tribe
KoaMana exists to create long-term economic opportunity and lasting benefit for Native Hawaiian communities.
We believe in equitable business partnerships, where contributors are respected, expectations are clear, and success is shared.
Our philosophy Give First. Build Together. Prosper Together.
Our people
Kūpuna who carry knowledge forward. Families holding on to home. ʻŌpio looking for a path. Entrepreneurs building something of their own. They are the reason KoaMana exists.

How KoaMana intends to help
Where our giving will go as our companies grow. Planned
Too many ʻōpio leave school without a path forward, and too many of those paths lead toward the justice system.
When Native Hawaiian–owned businesses grow, families and communities grow with them.
Culture is the foundation everything else stands on.
Native Hawaiian food systems once sustained these islands, and they can again strengthen them.

Our promises
KoaMana owns companies that compete and deliver, starting with KoaMana Build.
Their success returns to KoaMana, a nonprofit that answers to its Native Hawaiian–majority board.
KoaMana directs those resources to its community priorities, through Native Hawaiian–serving partners.
We will share what we have actually given, not what we hope to give.
KoaMana is at the beginning of this work. Our first company is operating, and our community giving will grow as it grows.
