Hawaiʻi Rising is a new podcast series from the Hawaiʻi People‘s Fund featuring its 2021 grantees: 30 grassroots organizations at the forefront of progressive movements in Hawaiʻi. Hawaiʻi Peopleʻs Fund has helped to support, build capacity, and amplify the impact of grassroots social change movements in Hawaiʻi since 1972. We are dedicated to the most creative, passionate, and radical visions of community, bravely navigating the intersections of indigeneity, environment, race, class, labor, gender, art, technology, mental health, incarceration, food, and other crucial issues we face.
