10 Years of Ohana!

Ten years ago, The CALI Project set out with a simple mission: to teach and empower differently abled adults as they build the skills necessary for lifelong independence. A decade later, that mission has grown into three programs that walk alongside adults and families at every stage of that journey.

Now, we want to celebrate this milestone with the community that made it possible — and we'd love for YOU to be there.

Join us on Sunday, September 13, from 4–9 PM at Pono in downtown Santa Cruz for an evening of Hawaiian food, good music and celebrate with the community! 

There's no ticket to buy and nothing to plan in advance.

Simply show up, enjoy dinner with your family and friends and 15% of the evening's proceeds will go directly to The CALI Project!

📅 Date: Sunday, September 13

🕓 Time: 4–9 PM

📍 Location: Pono, Downtown Santa Cruz

🎸 Live Music: George Kahumoku Jr (Four-Time Grammy Award Winner) and Dave Abrahams (Multi-Instrumentalist, singer and songwriter) 

🎟️ Cost: No tickets, no cover charge — just dine and give back 

💙 How It Helps: 15% of the evening's proceeds support The CALI Project
