Mission and programs · 2023

• DESIGN AND CONDUCT COLLABORATIVE AND SUSTAINABALE COMMUNITY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES THAT ENSURE ALL PARTICIPATING CHILDREN MEET AND/OR EXCEED ACADEMIC STANDARDS, ASPIRE FOR HIGHER EDUCATION AND CAREERS, AND BECOME LEADERS IN THEIR COMMUNITY. FOLLOWING IS A DESCRIPTION OF THE CORE ELEMENTS: ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE - STUDENTS, PARENTS AND TEACHERS BELIEVE THAT THE STUDENTS ARE UNLIMITED IN HOW HIGH THEY CAN ACHIEVE AND ASPIRE TO. LANAI (PLACE) BASED - UNDERSTANDING LANA`I AS A PLACE THAT REPRESENTS THE BROADER WORLD WHERE YOU CAN USE LANA`I TO REPLICATE LIFE TO WHERE THE STUDENTS ARE LIVING. THE STUDENTS KNOW ABOUT THE HISTORY & CULTURE OF LANA`I - IT CAN BE DEMONSTRATED (I.E. TEST, DRAWING, PROJECT, ETC.). STUDENTS KNOW WHO THEY ARE, WHERE THEY ARE GOING- A SENSE OF SELF. I.E., GENEALOGY. DEMONSTRATE AN UNDERSTANDING OF HOW LIFE AND LIVING ON L?NA`I HAPPENS. WHETHER IT IS THE ECONOMICS OF THEIR HOME, OR THEIR ECOSYSTEMS ON THE ISLAND, OR THE SOCIAL INTERACTIONS BETWEEN FAMILIES. IT`S UNDERSTANDING HOW SOCIO-PHYSIO-CULTURAL CONDITIONS EXIST. THE MEASUREMENTS ARE BASED ON THEIR PARTICIPATION AND PERFORMANCE ON DESIGN/PROBLEM-BASED ACTIVITIES. MULTI-FACETED ASSESSMENTS TO MEASURE MULTI-FACETED LEARNING ACTIVITIES. HANDS-ON AND PROJECT BASED: LEARNING BY DOING AND PROBLEM- SOLVING. LEADERSHIP BUILDING - FOCUS ON WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO TEACH- THE BEST WAY IS WHEN STUDENTS "OWN" THE ISSUES & CHALLENGES AND TRY TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. KULEANA (I.E. THE FIGHT FOR MORE JOBS, FOR BETTER HOUSING, FOR TAKING CARE OF OUR ENVIRONMENT, ETC.) CREATING THE SENSE OF OWNERSHIP- KULEANA AND TAKING ACTION (THE ACTIVISM). STANDING UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT. MEASURE THEIR SUCCESS BASED ON THEIR LEADERSHIP IN UNDERSTANDING THE NEEDS AND ISSUES OF THEIR COMMUNITY AND DEVELOPING AN EDUCATION & CAREER PLAN THAT WOULD ADDRESS THE ISSUES. (I.E. STUDENTS CREATE A SHORT ESSAY - LOOK AT THE EXTENT TO WHICH ISSUES WERE ADDRESSED). LIFE LONG LEARNING - MULTI-GENERATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES- FOCUS ON OBSERVABLE BEHAVIORS WITH 2 OR MORE GENERATIONS WORKING TOGETHER ON A PLANNED ACTIVITY. ONE PERSON LEARNS - STUDENTS ARE WORKING ON A PLAN THAT EXTENDS INTO THEIR NEXT GENERATION. (I.E. DEVELOPING A 5- 10- 20 YR. PLAN INCLUDING EDUCATION & CAREER). FAMILY ENGAGEMENT - CONSIDER A FOCUS GROUP OR A SURVEY FROM THE FAMILIES TO SEE TO WHAT EXTENT THE PROJECT HAS ALLOWED THEM TO BE MORE ENGAGED IN LEARNING THINGS TOGETHER.

  Expenses $212,563 · Grants $750

As filed on the 2023 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2023

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
