Hui Makaala
About
 "Akisamiyo. Warabata ya nun naransa" (Goodness! Children are good for nothing). Okinawan nisei may have occasionally heard the issei express such an opinion.

​Hui Makaala implies an organization ever alert to serve, work, and strive together. The basic goals of the group have been: 1) to foster a better understanding and acceptance of the American way of life, 2) to provide social, recreational and educational activities for members and friends, 3) to assist deserving students in their pursuit of higher education.
