As kumu, we understand how much we put into every day with our haumāna. We think of ways to make things fun so Luhiloa doesn’t crash out on her desk. We triple check our facts to be ready for Keuakeakamai. We come up with options to nudge Akau and Hema in directions that play to their strengths.

Being a kumu is one the most beautiful but brutally tough jobs out there.

As we rack our brains to figure out how to keep our papa awesome, day in and day out, in person and online, Kanaeokana has some great news. We have a new space for you to enjoy a 200-for-1 opportunity.

When we create a haʻawina and find it works with our haumāna, instead of just using it with them, what do you think about sharing it in the Waihona with other kumu too? It’s a way for us to mālama kekahi i kekahi. So maybe over time if eight other kumu use that resource even once with their papa, you’d have kupua-like powers that make your one haʻawina positively impact 200+ ʻōpio beyond the many who call you kumu!

If we keep on doing this going forward for months, years, a mau loa, what we build together could be a nūpepa-like treasure trove for future kumu and haumāna 4, 40, and 400 years from now.

As with the nūpepa, the Waihona can be filled with momi of all sorts—some tiny and shiny, some a bit more coarse like ʻiliʻili, but all appreciated and all super useful in the hands of kumu looking for that kind of resource.

And just like you, other kumu will share what they create, amplifying the impact we collectively have in nurturing our ʻōpio, growing a stronger lāhui and building a better world with every Luhiloa, Keuakeakamai, Akau, and Hema we inspire.

So please, mai hilahila, mai hopohopo. E kaʻana like mai!
