#VibeHI Day

Inspired by National Good Neighbor Day, Vibrant Hawai‘i is inviting individuals and community groups to participate in #VibeHI Day, a grassroots movement to create connected and vibrant communities across Hawaiʻi Island.

​

Vibrant Hawai‘i is offering mini-grants of $50 to $100 to support small, meaningful projects - whether it's hosting a neighborhood gathering, sharing a meal or local produce, coordinating a neighborhood clean-up, or hosting a space for conversation and creativity, #VibeHI Day celebrates the many ways people can connect and care for one another.

​

To participate, applicants must complete a short application by Friday, September 5th. Mini-grants will be awarded on a first come, first served basis. All funded projects must be implemented on #VibeHI Day, Sunday, September 28, 2025.
