palila hanai

In Hawaiian, a practice of informal adoption called “hanai” is extended as a loving expression to others in need of a family. Native Hawaiians and indigenous people around the world have done this for generations.

As of 2024, there are about 300 Palila left.

Please join us by adopting one of 300 left in the wild as a symbolic gesture to care for Palila, and endangered species around the world in need our help. To form a hanai bond, is connection to all life that sustains us.

If you have any questions regarding this project then please email: info@worm-media.com

Palila adopted so far: 20 / 300
