Hawaii Alliance of Nonprofit Organizations

What good is HANO? if you need help with some issue you have with your non-​profit or starting a new non-​profit HANO is a great resource. I have been to many Grant Writing and other workshops run by HANO. Most of the events that I have been to were 1 day activities that were during a weekday and I was sent from work to attend. Usually the speaker was dead on target with current info needed to help our non-​profit learn and do more better.
In HI there are about 6– 7 thousand non-​profits. This is a huge amount of non-​profits. Many states in the mainland only have at the most 1,000 non-​profits. Here in HI it seems that many small groups get together and make a non-​profit. HANO is a tool that many people need and can get a great value out of because starting a non-​profit is work.
Many of the workshops are listed online and how to attend.
They have a job list for different non profit jobs in general.
There are some interesting posts on their website that can answer some questions in general about starting a non-​profit here in HI
There staff really does want to help and I have found them always willing to listen to advice and are happy to hear how their workshops helped.
