MVYLI Welcomes Hokule’a

MVYLI Welcomes the Hokule’a to Martha’s Vineyard

The Stone Soup Leadership Institute is hosting its 12th Annual Youth Leadership Summit for Sustainable Development. The Hokule’a is landing on the Vineyard right on time for the Summit: June 25-July 1. For six years we have been working with the Polynesian Voyaging Society to share the inspiring story of the Hokule’a and her worldwide journey. We honored them at the 2014 Cronkite Awards. www.soup4world.com. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to celebrate with those who are dedicated to ocean/environmental sustainability – and empowering our youth to become leaders. www.hokulea.com
