BEAUTIFUL KAUA'I
Kaua'i is one of the eight main islands in the Hawaiian Island chain. We Kaua'ians say "Kaua'i is the HEART of the Pacific Ocean." This is because of the location and the shape of the island, but also because of the "Aloha nui loa" (very open heart) of the island people.

KAUA'I POW WOW COUNCIL
Our purpose is:

The promotion of cultural and family values through exchange and education in an alcohol/drug-free environment.
To provide an educational outreach to local school children and teachers, K-12 schools and universities.
The development of Kaua'i-based events for family and visitors to our island.
Exchange of Native American Indian cultures and traditions with the Native Hawaiian culture and population, along with other local cultures.

We are a 501(c)3 organization completely made up of volunteers. The Board of Directors as well as many members of the Kaua'i Pow Wow Council (KPC), represent many Native American Indian Nations as well as the Native Hawaiian Nation.

KPC offers a place for unity to the Native American Indian Community. We hold monthly meetings and are involved in many community events and educational projects throughout the year. We also travel inter-island to participate in other pow wows that occur twice a year.

Our main event is the ANNUAL Pow Wow in the month of October every year since 1997 (with the exception of 2001). This event also includes an educational and cultural outreach program offered to the entire population of school-aged children on the island of Kaua'i.

Elections were held and there are new members of the 2007 Board of Directors which will be carrying on the mission and goals of the Kaua'i Pow Wow Council! Look for upcoming news about the new Board Members and what is planned for ongoing community support for this organization.
