The Mission: To conserve and restore a healthy and productive Maunalua Bay through community kuleana.

The Vision: A Maunalua Bay where marine life is abundant, the water is clean and clear, and where people take kuleana in caring for the Bay.

Mālama Maunalua (to care for Maunalua) is a community-based stewardship organization created to conserve and restore Maunalua Bay by informing, engaging and empowering community, and by forming strong partnerships with government and NGOs.

Mālama Maunalua began with a small hui of long-term residents of Maunalua Bay who shared a deep love of the region and concern about the steep decline in the health of this precious marine environment. Mālama Maunalua was formally launched in 2005, to be a coordinating body for current and future conservation projects at Maunalua Bay. in the fall of 2006, community members and conservation advisors met to produce a 3-year strategic action plan. After producing this first Conservation Action Plan, four working groups were formed to develop and implement detailed workplans for invasive alien algae removal: fishery/reef complex restoration, land-based pollution/watershed management, and community outreach and education. These working groups remain active to date.
