Due to the COVID-19 pandemic & the minimum 6 week Hawaii “stay at home” order,  the Henry Kapono Foundation and it’s board members in partnership with the Kawakami Family and with support from local company, Foodland, realize the urgent & immediate need for some professional musicians in the State of Hawaii to secure “basic essentials” and receive relief from the lost gigs, lessons, recording sessions and other music related professional work.  We are honored to be able to give what we can to help our fellow music professionals. 

The Henry Kapono Foundation’s We Are Friends… COVID-19 Relief Fund will provide up to $50,000.00 in Foodland gift cards to musicians, producers, engineers, dancers and other music professionals who have been affected by this current pandemic. An additional grant of up to $1000 may be awarded to provide additional relief in more extreme situations.
