April 2021 marks the 5 year anniversary of the launch of Island Life Engineering, LLC.
Now in our 5th year, we continue our focus on supporting island communities in climate change adaptation, well as in supporting our friends and neighbors during this extraordinary worldwide event, the COVID-19 pandemic. To this end, our current project in Kona, Big Island, to address increased flooding in the Keopu Mauka community is being performed remotely, in order to minimize risk to our client and residents in the area. As of this writing, I’ve received my first of 2 COVID-19 vaccination shots, and hope later this year to resume on-site and in-person support to our clients throughout the Pacific.
Despite the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic in all of our everyday lives and livelihoods, I’m thankful to be able to report to our colleagues, friends and clients, that Island Life Engineering, LLC continues to achieve and in some cases exceed our startup goals for our first 5 years of operation. We so grateful to all of those who have supported us along the way, from our clients, to our business partners, and to our friends and neighbors, in every island community we support. We have reached this mark, because of all of you.
To all who have helped us reach this point in our journey, we say,
Sulang;
Maraming Salamat Po;
Si Yu’us Ma’ase;
Kaselehlia;
Kammagar;
Kinisou;
and Mahalo Nui Loa.
It is my sincere hope that 2021 will bring us all to a point where the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic are behind us, and that we may all look forward to a safer future, resuming our most cherished endeavors of family, fellowship and good stewardship of our island in the cosmos.
