Aloha! I am Kanekoa “Koa” Crabbe, a lifelong Hawaiʻi resident, educator, community advocate & proud Native Hawaiian. I’m running for OHA At-Large Trustee to bring a fresh voice, greater transparency & stronger accountability to the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.

I will stand up for our lands, our waters, and our people—and work to create real opportunities for Native Hawaiians to stay, return & thrive here in Hawaiʻi.
