We are excited to be hosting an An Evening Under the Stars, a special fundraiser event celebrating 45 years of Hoa ʻĀina O Mākaha’s (HAOM) connection with this ʻāina and our dedication to serving the keiki and community of the Waiʻanae Coast. This event will take place at Hoa ʻĀina O Mākaha on Saturday, November 23, 2024, from 5:00 PM - 8:30 PM. 

At the event, we will honor Uncle Gigi and Aunty Judy Cocquio, who will be in attendance this evening. Their leadership and dedication have played a vital role in the growth of our organization, inspiring us as we look ahead to the future of HAOM.

We will commemorate this tremendous milestone surrounded by the beauty and bounty of Mākaha, with ʻono meaʻai made by Chef Ahu Hettema and Nili Yildirim of Istanbul Hawai‘i, Chef Michelle Karr-Ueoka of MW Restaurant, and Searider Culinary of Wai‘anae High School, entertainment by Uluwale, farm tours led by our keiki, and a country store with value-added products fresh from the farm. Guests are sure to enjoy a truly memorable evening as we honor our 45-year history, share memories, spend time together, and extend our gratitude. 

All proceeds made from this event will go directly towards our mission-driven work (education programs, community initiatives, operations, the HAOM Community Scholarship Fund, Capital Improvement Projects, and much more) helping us to grow together in meaningful ways.
