FAITH KALAMAU
Community Health Worker
Born, raised and currently living in Kewalo homestead has taught me many cultural values. Hawaiian values from my grandparents, parents and my neighbors. Knowing my community and building a relationship with them is very important to me. It Is nice when you’re walking or driving in Papakolea and everyone knows your name. This is a way of knowing you made a connection.
At Kula no na Poʻe Hawaii, I am a Community Health Worker with the Papakolea Board & Stone Program and also organize Papakolea’s Annual Trunk or Treat. I'm a proud grandmother and in 2022, I was Paʻu Princess for the island of Lanaʻi in the Aloha Festival Parade. I feel blessed and grateful and look forward to another great year ahead.
