What’s in a Name?

KUA means back. Like a backbone that connects and supports. Kuaʻāina are the grassroots, rural peoples of Hawaiʻi nei. Ulu means to grow. ‘Auamo is the carrying stick held on multiple shoulders of laborers who shared the burden of carrying something of great weight forward. By taking up the ‘auamo, our kuaʻāina communities share the sacred responsibility, or kuleana, to better Hawaiʻi.
