Save Our History

 

FOR OUR OHANA

You Have the Power to Make the Difference

Since Kauaʻi Historical Society’s (KHS) founding on May 7, 1914, we have been dedicated to the preservation of Kauaʻi County history for all future generations.

Our mission has been to collect, preserve, and disseminate the oral, written and pictorial history of Kauaʻi County; to protect and preserve historic sites, and to educate ourselves and the public about the history and cultures of Kauaʻi and Niʻihau.

You play a major part in this mission. Without your generous support, this would not be possible.

Thank you, from all of us at KHS.
