Overview

Mission

In 2019, Molokai Hunting Club was re-established when a group of young individuals decided to turn their shared interests and passion of hunting into an official hunting club. After a couple of effective meetings and community discussions, the club were on our way to creating a central safe platform to keep Molokai in Molokai hands. Creating positive and long-lasting relationships with private landowners and giving back to our community.

In addition, educational programs that will administer respect for the environment and in support legislation which will benefit wild game and the hunting community as a whole within the State of Hawaii.

Operating model

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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
