Hawaiian Islands Land Trust July Partner of the Month

Hawaiian Islands Land Trust (HILT) is a non-profit organization committed to working with private landowners, community groups, community leaders and government partners to protect Hawai‘i’s precious lands.

Using a variety of tools, they help landowners integrate conservation into their land use plans in perpetuity. This collaborative work today helps to avert inappropriate land use tomorrow—and the benefits of conservation are triumphs that resound for all generations to come. In January 2011, that vision became a reality when the merger of four existing organizations became official and the Hawaiian Islands Land Trust was born. Participating in the collaboration were Kaua‘i Public Land Trust, O‘ahu Land Trust, Maui Coastal Land Trust, and Hawai‘i Island Land Trust. Now, each county in the State is represented together by a vibrant new statewide land conservancy.

Their Mission Is Simple: To Protect The Lands That Sustain Us For Current And Future Generations.

  • Founded in January 2011, we represent the combined skill and resources of four organizations now working together to do right by the land.
  • Bolstered by national accreditation, HILT assumes responsibility for the protected lands currently in our care and all future acquisitions forever.
  • Proper protection defends against the threat of losing any more precious resources than we already have, while careful stewardship of these protected areas ensures their cultural and conservation values survive in perpetuity.

What sustains you:

  • snorkeling, surfing or a great day at the beach
  • getting good and dirty restoring a lo‘i kalo (taro patch) or native forest locally grown food
  • a quiet walk in nature
  • shoreline fishing with friends and family
  • enjoying the island scenery during your daily commute
  • reconfirming our shared identity as the People of Hawai‘i through visiting cultural and archaeological sites and learning the stories of the life of the land…
