Volunteer

For tasks big and small, HILT is always looking for energetic and enthusiastic volunteers. An essential component to the success of Hawai’i Land Trust, volunteers help with restoration and conservation projects, land stewardship, assist with events, complete office tasks, and collaborate on special projects.

No effort is too small.  Your valuable experience and expertise can help us accomplish our core mission of "protecting and stewarding the lands that sustain Hawaiʻi."  We welcome you to be part of the ‘ohana!

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, see the available opportunities below or contact us to discuss your skills, talents and areas of interest.  We look forward to hearing from you!

Ho‘omoe wai kahi ke kao‘o. Let all travel together like water flowing in one direction. — ‘Ōlelo no‘eau
