What we do
Pūʻā is the process of feeding, nourishing, and strengthening.
The Pūʻā Foundation assists with the emergence of enlightened communities and society and helps in the passing from one to another generation the nourishment of our ancestral dignity from which we revitalize our national consciousness. Through such acts of humanity, new life springs forth.
And so it is with the Punahoa Heritage Forest place-based initiative.
