Provide the nonprofit organization's mission statement. The North Hawaii Heritage Foundation is a private non-profit formed to operate the new Honoka'a Heritage Center, which opened in June 2021 as an education and visitor center. Our mission is to collect, research, preserve, celebrate and share the unique history and heritage of the people and cultures of Honoka'a and surroundings. We maintain and build upon the heritage collection first established in 2011 at the University of Hawaii's North Hawaii satellite campus. 2. If this application is for a program/service using a nonprofit organization as a fiscal sponsor, provide the mission statement of the organization carrying out the program/service. 3. In 500 characters, provide a brief narrative about your organization's experience, knowledge, and capacity to carry out the proposed program/service . From our location in a historic 1927-era building in Honoka'a's walkable "downtown," we serve the local community and visitors alike, offering educational exhibits, cultural programming, and access to an extensive community archive, including oral histories, historic photographs and other images, and a library of historical records. We also function as a visitor center, working with local businesses to provide information on area highlights and to promote Honoka'a as a destination. Since our mid-2021 opening (during COVID) we have already welcomed more than 20,000 visitors from all 50 U.S. states (plus DC, Puerto Rico, & Guam) and 41 foreign countries, many of whom report Hamakua ancestral ties. 4. In 1,000 characters, briefly describe the program/service you are seeking grant funds for.' The Honoka'a Heritage Center will host the 2025 Hamakua Sugar Days Festival over 7 selected dates from 7/l/25-6/30/26, in a different format from our inaugural 10-day festival in Oct. 2024 which marked the 30-year anniversary of the "final harvest" & closure of the last local sugar plantation. We hope to continue the festival annually in various formats. The festival celebrates the rich history and lasting legacy of an era and industry that permanently shaped Honoka'a and the surrounding Hamakua region. The 2025 festival will incorporate a diverse lineup of presentations and family -friendly activities which we will develop in collaboration with local community groups and host at different locations in Honoka'a. Our target audience will include local residents of all ages, as well as visitors from across the island, state, and the world. The goals of the 2025 Hamakua Sugar Days Festival are: (1) To acknowledge 31 years since the closing of Hamakua Sugar and raise awareness of the significance of agriculture to the community at large; (2) To recognize surviving plantation workers and provide an opportunity for them and their families to share personal recollections for posterity; (3) To explore the contributions of the indigenous Hawaiians and each of the various ethnic groups who immigrated to work on the plantations, put down roots, and contributed to the unique "local culture" that characterizes Hawaii today; (4) To expand use of the curriculum tools we have developed for sharing the lessons of plantation history in local schools; and (5) To provide an economic boost to the area by attracting visitors from across the state and overseas to come explore Hamakua history as a microcosm of Hawai'i as a whole. North Hawai'i Heritage Foundation - 2025 HAMAKUA SUGAR DAYS FESTIVAL Program/Service Objectives & Performance The next set of questions will provide grant application reviewers a clear sense of what your proposal is designed to accomplish and what is needed to get there. Please keep in mind that character counts include punctuation and spaces. 1. In 1,000 characters, explain the community need the program/service intends to fulfill. Evidence (data/citations) documenting the need must be provided. * The end of the sugar era is still being felt in Hanmkua today. Honoka'a's look and feel, ethnic makeup and the rise & fall of its economy are all linked to the history of sugar production, for which its rich volcanic soil & natural irrigation had made it an epicenter. For over 100 years the town had thrived, becoming at one time the 2nd largest on the island and the 3rd largest in the territory. But when sugar could be produced more cheaply abroad, hundreds of workers lost not only their jobs but also vital services like plantation housing & medical care. The local population declined with many leaving to seek jobs elsewhere. Honoka'a survives today as a tight rural community (pop. 2,699); economic indicators are improving but still below island average: poverty is 5.3%; nearly half of employed residents commute elsewhere for work; only 2% work in agriculture. Our Festival reexamines the many dimensions of this history & stimulates new thinking about the nature of community resilience. 2. In bullet form, describe the ways your program/service advances the CHANGE category you selected? (500 character limit) * Share the history of how the people of Honoka'a have creatively responded to repeated shocks to the local economy; educate/inspire our next generation thru personal stories of resilience • Explore Hamakua's unique cultural diversity & its contributions to the local economy & preservation work • Showcase local agriculture & new sustainable farming efforts • Promote community volunteerism/civic pride Attract more off -island visitors, including those wanting to reconnect with Hamakua roots Please refer to Logic Model Guide below when filling out questions 3-6: 3.

Financial support from local and statewide businesses and other sponsors. In -kind support from student groups, civic/service organizations and professional/subject specialists. 4. Activities * In bullet form, what major things will you do to achieve your indicators? Fall Sugar Days Festival Parade through Honoka'a featuring plantation camp themes, and former plantation workers, and ending at the County Park for Festival Fair. Local businesses along Mamane St. invited to participate with sidewalk sales, scavenger hunt, pop-up performers, food trucks, etc. Old-style county fair/agriculture test including "sugar themed" demos; student displays; food contests; pumpkin patch; musical performances; food vendors; historical exhibits; and a thematic keiki activity area. 6 bi-monthly Cultural Heritage Events (various locations throughout the year), each designed to focus on one of the diverse cultures that shaped the history and identity of Hamakua.

At least one screening to be featured at an Open House for teachers to introduce our school curriculum and field trip opportunities. 5. Outputs* In bullet form, what quantifiable results will your activities achieve to meet indicators? An all -day Festival Fair in October 2025, incorporating a diverse lineup of presentations and activities for all ages, including a parade through town and activities/vendors at the County Park and along Mamane St. in Honoka'a. Expected reach: at least 3,600 participants. Six bimonthly Cultural Heritage Events, showcasing the diverse cultures that have shaped the history and identity of Hamakua. Expected reach: 150 participants @ 6 events or 900 total. Outreach campaign to (1) promote and distribute curriculum tools produced for 2024 Festival sharing the lessons of the sugar plantation era with K-12 students and teachers on Hawaii Island, and (2) expand access to curriculum -related school field trips to the Heritage Center, with funding for handouts/materials and transportation from local corporate sponsors. Goal: to reach 300 students by the end of the 2025-2026 school year. 6. Measureable Outcomes* In bullet form, what are the measurable outcomes for the public and participants based on your activities? e Secure feedback surveys from a minimum of 175 Festival attendees and 25 volunteers to gauge satisfaction with programs and gather suggestions for additions/improvement. Develop collaborations with tip to 10 other cultural organizations. • Increase in local engagement with the Honoka'a Heritage Center during 2025-2026 over previous year, as evidenced by: o At least a 10% Increase in number of visits to the Center o At least a 15% increase in number of requests for customized research by families or others with Hamakua ties o At least a 20% increase in social media metrics o Al least a 25% increase in requests for school programs • Honoka'a youth demonstrate newfound understanding and pride in the plantation -era experience of their parents and grandparents, as evidenced through measures such as volunteering beyond the classroom, participating in heritage -related projects, etc. • Heritage Center to become a hub for the continuing production of oral histories on the sugar plantation era in Hamakua, by expanding our collection of oral histories by at least 5 during 2025-2026. 7.

If any, who the sustainability partner(s) is/are (and their roles/responsibilities): * We hope to look to the same community stakeholders that generously provided in -kind support, as well as financial investment for our inaugural 2024 festival (e.g., Hamakua-Kohala Health, the People's Theatre, the Honoka'a Business Association, plus the many generous businesses who stepped up as festival sponsors). We also hope to continue the close working relationship we developed with the various departments of Hawai'i County government, which provided invaluable introductions and advice, in addition to grant support. c. Any other business planning efforts to be undertaken: * Revenue Diversification: Beyond grant and sponsorship funding, we are actively exploring other revenue streams to ensure the festival's financial sustainability. This includes merchandising opportunities such as the production and sale of our second annual Heritage Cookbook and a commemorative Festival t-shirt and other gear. Green Initiatives and Energy Efficiency: We aim to promote awareness of environmental sustainability among Festival attendees and vendors and will encourage the implementation of green initiatives such as waste reduction, recycling programs, and use of eco-friendly materials. Cultural Preservation: Our Festival is designed to celebrate and preserve the rich cultural heritage of the Hamakua region. By incorporating traditional performances, cultural exhibits, and educational programs, we will actively contribute to the long-term preservation of local traditions and a "sense of place" in Honoka'a. d. Significant challenges and/or barriers you anticipate encountering (or are encountering) and how the program/service will address those challenges/barriers. * As a small not -for -profit museum with a commitment to free admission, we continually face the challenge of how to ensure adequate resources to fund our ambitious long-term objectives. The NHHF board is working on a long- term strategic plan for the Heritage Center, with one of our goals being to launch a capital campaign to build our capacity to grow and sustain ourselves. By promoting the name, mission and achievements of the Honoka'a Heritage Center, we are confident that the Festival will effectively introduce us to new audiences and continue to aid us in moving toward this goal.
