Advertiser Staff

The Office of Hawaiian Affairs has given a $15,000 grant to the Papakolea Community Development Corp.

The "community capacity building grant" will support the development of consolidated business plans for two nonprofit groups in the Papakolea Hawaiian homestead community: Papakolea Community Development Corp. and Kula no na Po'e Hawaii.

The money will also sponsor development of strategic plans for three other community groups: Papakolea Community Association, Kalawahine Streamside and Kewalo Hawaiian Homes Community Association.
