PAL
Big Island
PAL has expanded to the Big Island
It has always been PAL’s vision to use the knowledge we are gaining on Kaua'i to solve the housing crisis on our neighboring islands, and eventually across our nation. Our goal is to share our mana'o and create templates for affordable housing that can be adjusted to succeed anywhere.
PAL is working closely with Equity Hawaii Real Estate in Hilo to identify, analyze and secure projects.
How can you help?​
1. Find us leads
Let us know if you know of land or buildings on the Big Island that you think would be a good fit for truly affordable housing. Be creative, but properties most likely to work are those zoned multi-family. They can be land, preferably near infrastructure, where we could develop homes and/or apartments and existing buildings that we could purchase to offer affordable rentals. If you are a Realtor® and the property is not your listing, we will offer referrals or splits. The ONLY thing we care about is providing affordable homes to our beleaguered local families and work force.
2. Spread the word
Speak about our work to members of your community, especially those with the power and influence to help. You can also share our posts on social media. We must help our community understand the urgent economic and cultural imperatives of keeping our work force and our local families from being driven from their ancestral homeland.
3. Donate
Set up a recurring donation to support our work — any amount helps. Or help convince others who can donate to do so. Having the funds to quickly pursue an opportunity is one of the biggest hurdles to affordable housing.
