The Kokua Foundation is a nonprofit organization working for environmental education at the schools and communities in Hawaii. Their mission is "to provide students with experiences that will enhance their appreciation for and understanding of their environment so they will be lifelong stewards of the earth". Their efforts are not limited to scholarly information but involve experiential learning. This kind of approach has a lasting impact on the minds of the kids and enables them to feel their responsibility towards their beautiful islands.

The festival is a wonderful opportunity to create a positive change and that also while having fun on the beaches of Hawaii! Jack Johnson, known for his distinctive guitar playing, is not only going to host the show but is going to perform the best of his latest album "To the Sea". The album was entirely recorded with the help of solar energy in Hawaii. The Grammy award winning Ziggy Marley will also be seen playing a solo acoustic set. The performances of Grammy award winning composer Taj Mahal & his Hula Blues Band will be a special treat this season. Jake Shimabukuro and Anuhea will keep the event at its best with their music and energy.
