We are pleased to announce the latest milestone in the development of the HAWAI‘I WILDLIFE CENTER. The planning, design, and pre-construction phases are complete due to the huge contribution of professional time and expenses by our design and construction team. We are now kicking off our site-work phase that includes grading, drainage, wastewater and utilities.
HWC has raised over 70% of the construction funds inclusive of the land donation by Surety Kohala Corporation, the development office donation by the New Moon Foundation; seven important grants from: The State of Hawaii, Wendy P. McCaw Foundation, Atherton Family Foundation, Cooke Foundation, Ltd, Hawaii Electric Light Company-HEI Foundation, West Hawaii Fund of the Hawaii Community Foundation, LeBurta Atherton Foundation, Kilauea Point Natural History Association, Kaua‘i, and the Hawai‘i Audubon Society; community contributions and in-kind professional services.
Please come and share our progress, click here for directions. If you are interested in supporting the HWC project you can send your donations to Hawai‘i Wildlife Center, P.O. Box 551752, Kapa‘au, HI 96755 or click here to make an online donation.
