In response to the impact of COVID-19, Linn Nishikawa & Associates worked with the County of Maui Office of Economic Development to establish Kama‘aina First. This online resource offered Maui County businesses the opportunity to share their kama‘aina deals at no cost; for locals to take advantage of great discounts on staycations, meals, services and products; and, best of all, to show their aloha for our islands’ businesses and ‘ohana. 

In 2022, Kama‘aina First transitioned to the Maui Nui First program, a County initiative that continues to support our island’s businesses and nonprofits during COVID-19 and beyond.
