46. According to §2-136, "public purpose" is defined as a benefit to, improvement of, or promotion of the <br />interests in the following areas. Please select all the public benefits to be derived from your County fund <br />request: <br />Culture and the arts <br />47. In 2,000 characters or less, describe the measurable outcomes you aim to achieve with these <br />funds. <br />With the requested $9,500 to support videography and event security services, the Pahoa Lava Zone Museum <br />anticipates several measurable outcomes. The event is expected to draw more than 6,000 residents and visitors to the <br />heart of Lower Puna, increasing foot traffic and generating economic activity for restaurants, vendors, and small <br />businesses throughout Downtown Pahoa. Through dedicated security services, Activate Puna will provide a safe, <br />welcoming, and family -friendly environment where'ohana, from kupuna, makua to keiki, can gather to enjoy local <br />food, music, and crafts, ensuring responsible crowd management and a positive experience for attendees. In addition, <br />professional videography will document the event and capture stories from the community, allowing the museum to <br />share and preserve narratives of resilience rooted in the community's recovery following the 2018 Kilauea eruption, <br />when Lower Puna came together to rebuild and reconnect. Together, these outcomes will support the local economy, <br />create a safe space for community gathering, and amplify the enduring story of Puna's resilience. <br />
