I just received this e-mail communication.
Dear KOR/KORN Homeowners,
We wanted to take an opportunity to update you on the status of One ʽOhana Foundation and Trust, as well as One ʽOhana Political Action Committee (“PAC”). With your generous contributions, these organizations have been established to respectfully amplify our collective voices as homeowners, as well as to honor the people and spirit of Maui.
One ʽOhana Foundation and Trust:
Over the past year, the KOR/KORN Boards have spent a great deal of time working through our mission and vision, as well as identifying, with the help of the KOR/KORN Associates, organizations on the island that are making positive impacts to the Maui community, align with the Foundation and Trust’s objectives and are in need of our financial help and support. Our priorities, mission and vision are as follows:
Mālama: To serve, to honor, to protect, to care for
ʽOhana: Family
Lōkahi: Unity and harmony
Hoʽohanohano: Honor the dignity of others
Ka la hiki ola: The value of hope and promise
We made our first distribution of funds at the end of September 2018 to Puʽukukui Watershed Preserve, the largest private nature preserve in the State of Hawaiʽi. It is a wonderful organization and fits our mission perfectly. To learn more, view their website at puukukui.org. Additionally, we have identified over a dozen other worthy organizations we intend to support and plan on making distributions to those groups in the coming months.
It’s our wish to keep you updated more consistently, so the Boards are working on launching the One ʽOhana Foundation and Trust website. In the meantime, please visit and sign up for the One ʽOhana Foundation and Trust Facebook page.
One ʽOhana PAC:
The One ʽOhana PAC was established in 2014 as an “independent-expenditure only” political action committee or Super PAC. Although our PAC interests are very specific and we are limited in how we can spend the funds, our goal is to support local officials who share our core values and who will connect with us in a fair and even-handed manner through respectful dialogue and discussion.
These initiatives undoubtedly will play a significant role in enhancing our relationships with the citizens of Maui and the political, civic and social organizations that serve them and have been made possible only through the generous support of the KOR/KORN owners. The Boards are grateful for the owners’ support. Should you have any questions or concerns related to any of the initiatives, please direct them to the following email addresses:

Mahalo!
