The mission of the Native Hawaiian Center at PuÊ»uloa is to provide a trusted KÄ«puka, where students learn and cultivate a sense of belonging rooted in Aloha ʻĀina.
 
Our KÄ«puka is a place of respite from the storm; a place that over time and given the right conditions gradually infiltrates its devoid surroundings sparking it with vitality and spreading the tentacles of its life force as it touches negative spaces. The KÄ«puka that is the Native Hawaiian Center at PuÊ»uloa is a trusted thriving sanctuary that gives needed support for all students to learn and grow. Out of something that has come to symbolize a lack of life and something entirely lacking vitality, the sparkling life-giving KÄ«puka emerges.
