Our Story (Mo'olelo <3)
Aloha!! Mahalo!! & E Komo Mai!!
Island Dreamgirls started as a fun project in 2022, when I wanted a Hawaiʻi niche slogan tank that I couldn’t find anywhere. So I began designing my own and quickly became carried away by my love for art, design, and most of all, my beautiful home, Hawaiʻi.
As people around me started loving my designs and seeing the potential, I wanted it to also be an outlet to give back to my home and community. I began exploring Hawaiʻi nonprofits as I went on with my designs, but about a year later, the devastating Lāhainā wildfires occurred, left me completely shattered, and shifted my focus.
I was blessed to grow up in beautiful Lāhainā town, a place filled with memories, family, friends, history, beauty, and deep cultural significance. Island Dreamgirls is proud to support Lahaina Restoration Foundation, a long-trusted Hawaiʻi nonprofit dating back to the 1960s, dedicated to protecting and preserving Lāhainā’s historic and cultural heritage.
Being born and raised on the island of Maui, and having the privilege of being Hawaiian, are gifts I will always carry with pride, gratitude, and love.
Mahalo nui loa for supporting Island Dreamgirls.
From Hawaiʻi with love,
Island Dreamgirls
