Help Preserve Okinawan Culture

Hawaii United Okinawa Association's Mission

The Hawaii United Okinawa Association (HUOA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to promote, perpetuate, and preserve the Okinawan culture here in Hawaii. 

 

It is a huge part of the Hawaii Okinawan community and allows its members to learn about the culture through various educators and practitioners, a central meeting place to share experiences, and a way to connect with Okinawan government, organizations, and its people.  Running an active organization and a meeting place like the Hawaii Okinawa Center comes with a significant expense.
