Eligibility
| Eligible Applicants: | Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification) |
| Additional Information on Eligibility: | The goal of ONHR’s Kapapahuliau Climate Resilience Program is to enhance the ability of the Native Hawaiian Community to navigate the effects of climate change in ways that maintain the integrity and identity of the Native Hawaiian people while also maintaining and enhancing their capacity for coping, adaptation, and transformation. For this financial assistance opportunity, applicants for all Financial Assistance Categories (Kiakahi, ʻAuwaʻa, and Hoʻokele) must meet the following definition of, and criteria for, a “Native Hawaiian Organization.”
"Native Hawaiian Organization” or “NHO” means a non-profit organization — (A) that principally serves or benefits the Native Hawaiian Community, (B) that is composed primarily of Native Hawaiians, who also control or serve in substantive leadership and decision-making roles; and (C) that has demonstrated expertise in Native Hawaiian heritage, economic development, health and well-being, self-governance, or natural and cultural resources management. Native Hawaiian Community means the distinct Native Hawaiian indigenous political community that Congress, exercising its plenary power over Native American affairs, has recognized and with which Congress has implemented a special political and trust relationship. Native Hawaiian means any individual who is a descendant of the aboriginal people who, prior to 1778, occupied and exercised sovereignty in the area that now constitutes the State of Hawai‘i.All applicants are required to include in their application submission, per Section D. below, an attestation or certification signed by a duly authorized NHO representative (such as the Executive Director, CEO, or Board of Directors) acknowledging that the NHO meets the definition and criteria of an NHO specified above. For Category 2 (ʻAuwaʻa) and 3 (Hoʻokele) awardees, all partners NHOs and subawardees, respectively must indicate and include such an attestation.Registration or placement on the List of NHOs maintained by ONHR is not a pre-requisite or requirement for submitting an application, nor does it confer eligibility as an NHO in lieu of the attestation or certification per Section D of the Notice of Funding Opportunity. 1. Kiakahi (Individual NHO) – Named for a single-masted sailing canoe, Kiakahi applicants are those who propose a single project resulting in outcomes that support the applicant and the constituents it serves. 2. ʻAuwaʻa (NHO Collaboration) – Named for a fleet of sailing canoes, ʻAuwaʻa applicants are those that represent a group of identified partners collaborating on a joint project with shared outcomes. The NHO applicant for an ʻAuwaʻa award is considered the lead organization responsible for reporting and cost accounting requirements for the collaborative partnership. Collaborations may be comprised of partner organizations that serve the needs and interests from: 3. Hoʻokele (NHO Grant-Maker) – Named for the helmsman or navigator of a canoe, Hoʻokele applicants are those who have the administrative capacity and experience to provide financial and technical assistance to sub-recipient NHOs (sub-recipient NHOs must meet the same eligibility requirements as recipient NHOs) from underserved or disadvantaged communities that need assistance but often lack the administrative capacity to be successful in a competitive grant environment. Sub-recipient NHOs may be from: Please read the full Announcement in the "Related Tab" above for a complete description and instructions. |
