The Tradition of Honoring Our Veterans


On Veterans Day, November 11, we proudly honored the many veterans who call Hale Makua home, including those who served during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. We are grateful for their service, sacrifices, and the stories they have to share.
Each year, Hale Makua hosts a special Veterans Day program to recognize and celebrate our residents who served. For more than 50 years, we've had the privilege of welcoming Nā Pua O Kapiʻolani Hula
Studio to share the beauty of hula with our veterans and residents.

A heartfelt mahalo to Kumu Kathy, Kumu Pualalea, and their wonderful hula dancers of all ages for continuing this cherished tradition and bringing so much joy to our residents!
Following the performance, residents enjoyed a delicious lūʻau lunch featuring kālua pig, chicken long rice, lomi salmon, poi, mac salad, and lūʻau pie.
To all our veterans, mahalo for your service and sacrifice. It is our honor to care for you and celebrate you, today and every day.
