What We Do

At the core of our mission is a desire to "hoʻokōkua," meaning to work together.

Imua Maui Nei’s signature offering provides no-cost surf sessions for Lahaina’s children, youth, and families. Rooted in the healing power of the ocean, this program helps strengthen resilience, teach ocean safety, and deepen connection to the land and sea—all in a supportive, uplifting environment that honors each participant’s journey.

Together, guiding the Lahaina community toward renewed purpose and shared healing—one wave, one heart, and one moment at a time.

As stated by our Founder, Willy Keokalani Shim, “We will not turn anyone away. We are here to try to help. If we can’t help, then we will find another person or organization that can.”
