Donations to the Lanai Culture & Heritage Center
The Lanai Culture & Heritage Center (Lanai CHC) is a federally recognized 501c3 non-profit charitable organization. We do not receive government subsidies and are supported entirely by donations.
In October 2007, Na Hoaloha o Lanai—The Friends-Giving Organization of Lanai CHC was established to facilitate receipt of donations. Since that time more than one thousand individuals (Lanai residents and others who believe in our work), along with several various foundations and organizations have contributed donations to development and support of a wide range of programs initiated by the Lanai CHC.
WE WISH TO ACKNOWLEDGE HERE — all those who have contributed to the development and success of our heritage programs, and share the lists of donors by year, along with the names of people who have donated to our collections and acknowledge our many valued volunteers:
