Hawaiian Immersion on maui

West Maui Hawaiian Immersion Schools

Kimokeo Foundation has been there for the Hawaiian immersion community in West Maui since the Maui wildfires devastated the town in August 2023. One of our most substantial impacts was making a $100,000 contribution towards their non-profit organization, Nā Leo Kālele. These funds will be used to support Hawaiian immersion education in West Maui as they courageously piece their community back together and build their own, new version of their school. In the past, we have also granted Nā Leo Kālele financial support to hire a Hawaiian language teacher to teach Hawaiian language in Lahaina. 

Ke Kula ‘O Pi‘ilani

 Since 2019, we’ve been supporting Ke Kula ‘O Pi‘ilani, a private Hawaiian immersion school, located in ‘Īao Valley. We’ve helped them with general operating expenses, installation of safety equipment, building maintenance, funded Hawaiian cultural practitioners as educators, and purchased iPads during the pandemic and for survivors of the August 2023 Maui wildfires. 

Central Maui Hawaiian Immersion Schools

 In honor of the 30th anniversary of Wailuku's Hawaiian immersion preschool, Pūnana Leo O Maui, Kimokeo Foundation presented a $30,000 to the school's non-profit, Nā Leo Pūlama O Maui. The intent of the gift was to provide funds to support their new school that will be built in the future.


In Central Maui, we also continuously support Hawaiian immersion schools by providing opportunities for them to fundraise. One example is having a class participate at one of our outreach events and fundraising for themselves by making lei for the South Maui community. We’ve also been a sponsor of Nā Leo Kāko‘o ‘O Maui’s (Central Maui’s Hawaiian immersion non-profit) annual golf tournament. 

Hāna Hawaiian Immersion Schools

Although Hāna is off the beaten path for many, it is a Hawaiian town that’s revitalizing the Hawaiian language daily. We’re happy to have supported Hawaiian immersion on the east side of Maui by providing education equipment and supplies.
