Vision For Our Community Kitchen
|
huiMAU created the Community Kitchen Food Distribution (CKFD) Program out of a sense of kuleana (responsibility/accountability) to share the abundance and hānai kanaka in our community. Throughout the 3 years of the program's existence, CKFD has been a place to gather with each other and share food and stories intergenerationally. From weekly to now monthly distributions, we have aligned our program to the needs of our people we serve.

Join our CKFD Program!
Stop by the huiMAU hub every third Friday of the month (unless stated otherwise). Our Pūʻolo Meaʻai (Food Bundles) include 1 pound of fresh Waipiʻo poi, a variety of locally grown veggies, and every so often a ready-to-eat meal/protein. These pūʻolo meaʻai are expected to aid in feeding a family of four. To join our food program, all you need to do is answer a few registration questions as a walk-in. |
