Full Life Hawaii, Donkey Mill Art Center and Abled Hawai’i Artists’ collaborative effort led to the organization of Pua Na Pua Art 1st Annual Art Festival, empowering people of all abilities to explore self-employment through the arts.
Full Life was represented by seven participant entrepreneurs in our Employment Services Program. As a group, over $820 in sales were made!!!
* Entrepreneurs from Hilo sold $20 in para-cords, $75 in original anime/martial arts themed greeting cards, $83 in body sprays and lip balm and $150 in jewelry!

* In addition to being the source inspiration that created Abled Hawai’i Artists (AHA), our entrepreneur from Pahoa sold $205 in nature photography!
Finally, we want to congratulate and acknowledge our dedicated and caring Direct Support Professionals. The success of our participants is a direct result of your commitment to making a difference in one person’s life. Mahalo nui loa!!!
