PROGRAM BACKSTORY
The Shaka License Plate Program is the culmination of a 2-year review process that encompassed all Counties and all Sheriff Offices within the State of Hawai’i agreeing to the program. The process was bird-dogged by Steve Sue, ID8 Chairperson and producer/writer of the historical documentary, “Shaka, A Story of Aloha.” Through the production of the film, Sue realized that the Shaka can be used to reduce road rage and increase aloha spirit.
USE OF FUNDS
Shaka Plates are part of the State of Hawai’i DMVʻs Nonprofit Support Program. Each year, $20 of every Shaka plate fee goes to the associated 501C3 nonprofit, in this case, ID8, a Honolulu nonprofit dedicated to fostering ideation and expression that result in positive impacts. Funds donated to ID8, a Honolulu-based 501C3 nonprofit, will be used to carry out its mission of fostering ideation and expression to create positive impacts such as through sharing aloha through Shaka-based programs.
