Volunteer Vacations in Hawaii, or VoluntourismAloha! We're happy to announce our new site, Volunteer on Vacation in Hawaii. It's packed with information about many volunteer opportunities for you and your family while you're on vacation in Hawaii.
All guests of the Hale Hookipa Inn who volunteer for one of these projects will be given a 5% discount on their stay, and an additional 5% of their total bill will be donated to the cause for which they volunteered! Please contact Cherie for more details on this special offer. Don't miss the new Hookipa Aikane (home sharing friend) Blog, where you can talk story, see great pictures of Hawaii, and find out the latest on what's going on. The Hale Hookipa Volunteer Vacations program was recognized by O Magazine!
2008 marked the 11th year of Hale Ho'okipa Inn. It sure feels good to look around and see the fruits of my labor. Now it is time to reach out a little further and continue to give back to the wonderful aina that sustains me. I have lived in these islands for over thirty years now, and everyday I am grateful for the place I call home.
Being a hostess for visitors, I find myself in a position to share a bit of Maui no ka oi, Maui the best. I would like my guests to have a wonderful, refreshing and rewarding time while on vacation. At breakfast, as guests ask advice for their day, I weave in culturally sensitive issues and how to approach the places they visit with awareness and respect. With this in mind, I offer some suggestions on voluntourism to anyone who wants to give back to the paradise they love to visit. Aloha malama ka aina.... respect the land, with love, Cherie Volunteer on Vacation in Hawaii Voluntourism ProjectOur volunteer listing at Serve.gov
