Community Infrastructure for the Future
For generations, Uncle Robert’s Awa Club has served as the beating heart of the Kalapana community in Puna— a vibrant gathering place where local businesses, artisans, and musicians thrive, families come together for regular events, and visitors from near and far experience the true spirit of aloha.
Uncle Sam Keli‘iho‘omalu, Uncle Boy Wong and others are now leading the effort to install a new roof on this cherished venue, replacing decades-old infrastructure that can no longer stand up to the relentless elements of our volcanic landscape.
Your support will protect this vital space, ensuring it remains a safe, welcoming hub for cultural connection, music, ‘awa, stories, and community mana for decades to come. As part of The Best House’s commitment to building resilient community infrastructure that lasts, this project safeguards not just a building, but the living legacy of Uncle Robert Keli‘iho‘omalu and the pathways we forge for future generations.
