Making an Impact

Utilizing financing of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022, we have the opportunity to develop, install, and finance a portfolio of Solar+Storage+Energy Efficiency projects at LMI households in Hawai’i through a pilot project of Whole Home Energy Retrofits on Department of Hawaiian Homelands (DHHL) households.

Their vision is a community where health, wellness, and happiness thrive in every home.

This initiative utilizes a multi-disciplinary approach by working on immediate acquisition and distribution of hardware directly to keiki, kūpuna, and communities in need, as well as partnering in a statewide network to provide broadband access to unserved communities.

Kūkulu is a collaborative resourcing platform that provides an aggregated view of community needs, enabling strategic decision-making, optimally leveraged capital resources, and catalytic impact.

Kupu in partnership with other organizations such as Chef Hui, has launched a free meal distribution program on Oʻahu.

The Kupu ʻĀina Corps program provided temporary employment for those interested in exploring environmental and sustainability related work.
