New Mauka to Makai Out Soon!

We’ve done newsletters for many years, and in the last year, we’ve been rethinking how to do them better. We’re incredibly excited to be releasing our first 2010 issue of “Mauka to Makai” in the next few weeks! This issue highlights the future for food sovereignty in Hawai’i, bioprospecting issues, cultural practice on Mauna Kea, and first-hand experiences in Hawai’i's environmental justice movement, featuring articles from author Claire Hope Cummings, cultural practitioner Kealoha Pisciotta, and UNITE HERE! Local 5 intern Lauren Ballesteros.

We are gearing up to mail out now. If you’ve moved recently, you can help us get your copy to you by emailing your new address to alaina@kahea.org. Mahalo!

Thanks also goes to the Earth Friends Wildlife Foundation, whose challenge grant pays for our newsletter printing/mailing. This means that the dollars YOU give go directly to our program work–towards protecting acres of native habitat and sacred cultural sites throughout Hawai’i nei.

If you haven’t already signed up,  subscribing is easy and free, here on the KAHEA website.
