Aloha Missions | Spreading the Spirit of Aloha

Born and raised on the shores of Waiehu in Maui, Lesley Cummings and Tamika Cabiles, two community-driven Maui natives, believe in spreading their way of life and contributing to the growth and wellbeing of their homeland. In 2016, they launched Aloha Missions, a lifestyle brand that offers a broad range of experiences, programs and workshops (or missions) that inspire people to understand, learn and live the values of aloha. It is their deepest desire to share that aloha, and not just say it. With aloha in their business name, they feel a certain kuleana (responsibility) of teaching and spreading its sacredness.
