Empowering and exposing the next generation of Hawaiʻi's (kanaka) leaders to (technology) startups. @nalukai, @purple_maia, @XLR8UH, @BlueStartups are all leading the way.
With Hawai’i unemployment over 37%, immediate budget shortfall, and ~$88 Billion future liabilities across pension, retiree health care, infrastructure, and climate change mitigation, what are proposals to diversify away from exploitive tourism? #KānakaTwitter

5. [Part 3] Solution Continued: Likewise, individuals could utilize this time to swap out the commute time with time to get some projects done around the house (just remember to get your work-work done still 😝). Aloha from the team at @XLR8HI! ❤️🤙 #COVID19 #COVID_19 #Corona
5. [Part 2] Solution: The world of work is heading towards #RemoteWork – this is a great time to test the waters for many #smallbiz & individuals. Businesses should use this time to focus on processes & efficiencies, & may reevaluate the need for expensive office space + overhead

5. [Part 1] Problem: Disruption of routines will cause a lot of anxiety for individuals and businesses. Solution: Practice shifting your perspective. Taking precautions is good; panicking is not. Keep calm & utilize this time to enjoy time with your #Ohana & loved ones. #Virus

3. [Part 2] Solution Continued: Wash your hands with soap & water for 20 seconds before shopping, after shopping, & before contact with the #elderly and/or sick. #COVID19 #COVID_19 #COVID #Corona #Virus #CoronaVirus #CoronaOutbreak #Epidemic #Pandemic #Advice #Tips
3. [Part I] Problem: Most diseases like #covid19 impact the #elderly and/or sick population harder than young, healthy adults. Solution: Practice #Aloha & Kokua. If you can, think of the Kupuna in your network that need your help and offer to go grocery shopping for them. #COVID

2. Problem: Most individuals are living #paycheck to paycheck & will have disruptions in their pay cycle. This is worse in the service industry where much of income is based on tips. Solution: If you can, tip >20% for next few weeks to allow individuals time to save. #COVID_19

1. Problem: Most #SmallBusinesses operate on thin margins. Disruption in cash flows for even a day, let alone weeks, could significantly impact their livelihood. Solution: Buy #GiftCards for future use providing them income today that allows them to budget for tomorrow.#COVID19
