Veterans Entrepreneur Training Support
(VETS) Program Workshop

​

 

We conducted Native Hawaiian Empowerment Entrepreneur Training program on all islands and the Native Hawaiian VETS program separately. These workshops provide training to help Veterans and Disabled Veterans become entrepreneurs and start, grow and sustain a small business.  We allow other than Native Hawaiians to attend but the program is for Native Hawaiians and allows others to participate.  We supplement Native Hawaiian who cannot afford the training.  In the past over 75% of the attendance on the outer island was Native Hawaiians and on Oahu the majority of the participates was Native Hawaiians.

LUA Leadership Program

​

The Lua Leadership program is designed to encourage and promote leadership development. In the Lua Leadership program, personal individual leadership development is fostered through education based in Native Hawaiian culture. Incorporating concepts of self-knowledge, mana, spirituality, and sense of self, the program combines traditional Native Hawaiian wisdom and modern methods. The Lua Leadership program emphasizes the ‘5 C’s of leadership’ which frame leadership around the values of character (pono), competency (makaukau), courage (koa), commitment (kupa’a), and compatibility (aloha). The Lua Leadership Program has been developed by Thomas Kaulukukui Jr., trustee of the Queen Lili’uokalani Trust.
