About Us
Mālama Learning Center (MLC) evolved as a collaborative response to serve two area needs: Kapolei High School (KHS) wanted to build a performing arts auditorium for the community and an environmental group wanted to establish a conservation learning center.
Community members joined the effort and the resulting “hybrid” is MLC, a private non-profit organization envisioned as a place in West Oʻahu that brings art, science, conservation, and culture together to promote sustainable living throughout Hawaiʻi.
We design hands-on, place-based programs that teach sustainable, culturally grounded living. With health and the environment at the core, we serve diverse audiences beyond traditional classrooms. As a small nonprofit, we focus on our strengths–environmental education, natural resource management, and leadership development. Partnering with local conservation, agriculture, nonprofits, and academic institutions, MLC plays a key role in bringing people together to drive meaningful results.
