Walk for Water

This design is a small gesture of my personal kuleana to stand for our wai.

In the words of Mary Kawena Pukui, recorded on April 11, 1975, at her home in Mānoa, O‘ahu: “The Hawaiian word for water is wai. The Hawaiian word for wealth is waiwai; wai doubled, or said twice. When you have wai you have life, the ability to sustain yourself upon the land. And the water was believed to be from the god Kāne i ka wai ola, Kāne the giver of the water of life.”

I am so grateful to the Sierra Club of Hawai‘i for their talented and persistent leadership in standing up for our precious water source — our wealth — and inspiring the power of community voices, including this amazing Walk for Water team. Red Hill is inviting us all to step into our kuleana.
