Nā Kilo Lani Honorees: Polynesian Voyaging Society 2019 Gala

The Polynesian Voyaging Society (PVS) paid tribute to its 2019 Nā Kilo Lani honorees explore.org and the Annenberg Foundation, Harold K. L. Castle Foundation, and James & Abigail Campbell Family Foundation on the evening on April 20, 2019.

Honorees received lei hulu wa‘a, feather lei that adorn the mast of the double-hulled canoe as kīlepalepa, streamers continually revealing the direction of the wind to the navigator. PVS would like to extend its gratitude to these organizations who are charting the course toward a more sustainable future and empowering Hawaiʻi to rise to the forefront of environmental conservation and restoration. Mahalo!
