Kakou Collective started in the pages of my personal planner with doodles and custom hand lettered fonts. Throughout my journey of planning, I have witnessed and experienced the importance of mental/physical wellness and incorporating habits with cultural significance. Kakou Collective has evolved into so much more than I couldʻve ever imagined, and it has transformed into a vehicle in which we can connect with and support our local community and ʻāina (land).
As Kakou Collective has evolved, it was important for me to weave a give back program into the heart beat of this business. In 2020, we started off donating where we could and when we could. In 2021, we started to create collections with the purpose of donating to local organizations. We are proud to announce that in 2023, we pledge to give 1% of our profit each quarter to local organizations and communities that help Hawaiʻi thrive.
As a company inspired by Hawaiʻi, we will be focusing our giving to organizations within Hawaiʻi that benefit the beautiful flora, fauna, and local culture (especially its native people, native species, and language). Read more about our mission here.
