About the company

We Are Oceania (WAO) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the self-sufficiency of Micronesian citizens in Hawaii. It empowers the Micronesian community to navigate success while honoring their diverse heritage, advocating for equal access to resources. WAO is registered as a Corporate Entity (Tax Exempt) and Non-Profit Organization in SAM.gov.

WAO has been the recipient of two major Project Grant awards from the Department of the Interior Insular Affairs under the Economic, Social, and Political Development of the Territories (CFDA 15.875) program. In 2022, WAO received a $500,000 grant to establish the WAO Youth Empower Center, a learning and wellness center serving youth from the Freely Associated States and Compact of Free Association Nations in Hawaii. This center aims to bolster healthcare capacity, strengthen island economies, and fulfill U.S. Compact obligations for this underserved population. In 2023, WAO secured an additional $250,000 grant to operate the WAO Youth Empowerment Center from April 2023 through September 2027, providing services focused on similar goals aligned with the Insular Affairs mission.
