What it reported doing in 2023
HOALA NA KANAKA: SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGEMENT & TRAINING PROGRAM: Program participants: 2 Mni Wichoni Health Circle (MWHC). Duration: 6 months. Mni Wichoni Health Circle (MWHC) is making a major impact on the community of Standing Rock. Born out of the hashtag waterislife movement while the citizens of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribal Nation stood in opposition to the Dakota Access Pipeline, MWHC provided a pluralism of holistic healing services to the folks who were within the camp and beyond. Now that the MWHC has been operating within the boundaries of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, there is great movement around what health and healing services could and should be. Ho'aka Mana is to provide a social media/marketing template/outline on behalf of the MWHC. We will work together to design and develop culturally sustaining strategies for sharing the work and upcoming work of the MWHC, as well as creating a presence on social media. Below is a list of goals and a timeline included in the scope of work. Goal 1: Create a foundation for MWHC organization (1-2 months), this will include the following: Create google excel templates. Creating a color palette to consistently use. Develop a yearly calendar of important dates to create content/messaging around. Help create a process for telling the story (make sure our messaging follows our mission and is consistent across networks). Co-create content to share with community and social networks. Help update our website to share current information. Create a task management process. Goal 2: Create a strategy for sharing on social media platforms (1-3 months), this will include the following: Create a strategy for sharing on instagram, facebook, and website. Conduct interviews with Co-Executive Directors to get a sense of how They talk about the work and the organic messaging that exists. Hold a brainstorming session to initially map out all potential ideas for Social media/marketing strategy. Goal 3: Continued support and upkeep (3-6 months), this will include the Following: Meet bi-weekly to discuss needs, upcoming events, updates, etc. Train and collaborate with Co-Executive Directors and incoming Community Engagement Specialist who will carry this work forward. This will include, but not limited to, training in video creation and editing, when and where to capture images and videos, what angles to use, updating calendar, and scheduling content. TERM: Dedicate 5 hours per week for six months based on the dates above. Timesheet should disaggregate hours per project to be turned in the 25th of every month and beginning on August 25th, 2022. Ho'aka Mana shall perform the following obligations: Ho'aka Mana will purchase and provide all supplies and materials necessary to complete the project.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
