Itʻs been an exciting 2019 Year for our Kalihi-Palama HCC.  We started the year by participating at the annual January Makahiki event in Waikiki, then moving forward to annual and special fundraisers, Maunaala cleaning, annual parades participation, annual Holiday community makana donations and participating and advocating for KPHCC at the annual AOHCC convention on Maui.  Mahalo for your dedication, support, volunteering, leadership, and much more.  Hoʻikaika Like Me Ke Aloha – Strengthen Together With Love. 
With all the good work of the Kalihi-Palama Hwaiian Civic Club for our community, on behalf of the Officers and Board of Directors, we invite everyone to the Kalihi-Palama HCC Holiday Party!

Get involved in OHA’s Strategic Planning Process

The Office of Hawaiian Affairs has started the process to develop our Strategic Plan for 2020 and beyond. An important part of this process is engaging with you, our beneficiaries and stakeholders. For those who prefer face-to-face interaction, OHA will be hosting community meetings throughout the pae ʻāina.

We invite you to join us at one of nine community meetings we have scheduled in May and June 2019. At the meetings we will share about our strategic planning process and learn about the needs of our beneficiaries. Your input can help determine OHA’s focus for years to come. All meetings start at 5:30 p.m. Please join us.
