Our Sponsors
We wouldnʻt be here without our incredible sponsors. Every donation no matter the amount helps us collectively create real impact throughout the islands of Hawaiʻi.
Founding Sponsor
“The Hawaiian islands and the Hawaiian people’s distinct connection to spirit and ʻāina have always been a guiding light and I endeavour to live by those teachings every day.
When Koana approached me with the desire to return to her cultural homeland, I knew that the opportunity to support her would foster the compassionate shift our society needs right now. She has that explosive mix of artistic inspiration, organizational professionalism and fire to change the system that is required to make DEEP CHANGE. Now more than ever we need her unique viewpoint and leadership as a female, mother and native Hawaiian.
Our accomplishments, whether professional or personal, will be nothing more than a glass house unless we actively work to create the world we want to live in. We can do this by lifting each other up, taking a chance by supporting another person’s dream. And maybe, through this, we can all be a part of and dream the same wonderful dream together.”

“I am incredibly grateful to our founding sponsor, Jessica Lo Ibarra, for her visionary support and mentorship. Her commitment to our mission from day one helped me lay the foundation for the Wiliwili Foundation, allowing me to immediately begin our work of providing grants and resources to Hawai'i-based non-profits.
Jessica's belief in our vision has been instrumental in empowering community-led initiatives focused on cultural revitalization, land sustainability, educational access, and the arts. Her generosity is a shining example of the spirit of kōkua (support) that drives real impact in our islands. I am honored to partner with her and share our journey. “ - Koana Laimana, Founder
