Maui Hui Mākeke 

Made with Aloha by Youth Entrepreneurs

As a part of MHMʻs Youth Entrepreneurship Program, participants receive virtual classroom training in Hawaiian cultural values related to entrepreneurship and gain essential business knowledge such as budgeting and market research while being encouraged to develop their own entrepreneurial ideas. The classroom lessons are then put into practice as participants become involved in the operations of the Maui Hui Mākeke business, learning the following skills:  product design and development, in-person and online marketplace sales, marketing, customer service, setting prices, market research, branding, technology, business finance, and long term business planning. 

Our Maui Hui Mākeke currenlty sells beautiful woodwork products designed, created, and sold by Maui Hui Malama youth. Proceeds from our mākeke directly support youth in the program, helping to cover the associated costs and  fund stipends the students receive upon graduating from the program.  Maui Hui Mākeke aims to help youth and their families build lasting financial stability through teaching entrepreneurial skills and providing financial support to help reach their goals.
