Alan has been the visual cornerstone of our foundation since day one. He thoughtfully designed our website, logo, and overall branding to reflect our values and mission clearly. Alan’s continuous care and eye for detail have given the Akaka Foundation for Tropical Forests a welcoming, beautiful digital home that helps our message reach people far and wide.

We are deeply grateful for our long-standing partnership with Andrew Richard Hara. Since our inception, Andrew’s captivating photography and steady support have played a central role in how we share our mission. His keen eye and deep connection to Hawaiʻi bring our work to life, connecting a global audience to the beauty of these landscapes and the spirit of environmental stewardship.

We are deeply grateful to Hollyn Johnson, a professional photographer and former staff photographer for the Hawaii Tribune-Herald. Taking advantage of an employer program that provides paid leave to support non-profits, Hollyn has generously shared her time and talent with us. She has captured the heart of our work across multiple site visits—photographing our Kaiāulu Puʻuwaʻawaʻa, Pilina ʻĀina, and ʻŌhiʻa Disease Resistance programs, as well as our team in action. Her vibrant imagery helps tell the story of our forests and the people who care for them.
