Who Are We?

Welcome to the North Kohala Community Resource Center! NKCRC, a 501(c)3 nonprofit founded in 2002 can be found on the northern tip of Hawaiʻi Island in a vibrant post plantation community located at the end of the road. It is large in land area (133 square miles) and small in population (6300).

NKCRC’s mission is to support successful community projects that benefit North Kohala. We accomplish this with the help of our constituents who are project organizers that lead the many sponsored projects under our 501(c)3 umbrella. These organizers represent a broad range of the community, including those locally born and raised along with transplants from the continent. Through building capacity in our organizers we ensure that they are then able to plan out their project, build budgets, find funders and write successful proposals. We believe that this capacity building makes a difference in our local quality of life.

Long Term Goals

NKCRC’s plans for operating sustainability include the establishment of an endowment fund which will enhance our ability for long-term planning. Stay tuned for more on this…
