A Wahi for Learning
Rooted in Brilliance
Kula is Purple Maiʻa Foundation's educational hub—a wahi where Indigenous innovation, technology, and computer science serve community. We create culturally grounded learning spaces empowering keiki, haumāna, and educators to see technology as an expression of Hawaiian identity.
Preparing Future
Ancestors to Kūkulu Ea
Kula empowers keiki and community through Indigenous innovation, technology, and computer science. We nurture learning pathways where Native Hawaiian knowledge and modern tools meet—supporting learners to know their piko, find their passion, and live their purpose. By centering ʻike, moʻolelo, and pilina, Kula prepares Future Ancestors to design solutions that uplift their communities and carry forward ancestral intelligence.
