Her reporting has appeared in various publications including Rolling Stone, The New Republic and The New York Times Magazine. She has also been an on-air reporter for the NFL Network and NFL Films. Jennifer feels deeply honored and humbled to witness and document the Worldwide Voyage of H'k'le'a. John Bilderback was a SURFER Magazine senior staff photographer for twenty years on the North Shore of O'ahu, and has dozens of covers and hundreds of magazine page credits to his name. When H'k'le'a came to Hale'iwa in 2013, he became deeply captivated by M'lama Honua and the mission ultimately drew him in, and he became a crew member. He also participates on the board of directors for the North Shore Community Land Trust. Founded in 1973 on a legacy of Pacific Ocean exploration, the Polynesian Voyaging Society (PVS) seeks to perpetuate the art and science of traditional Polynesian voyaging and the spirit of exploration. We use experiential educational programs that inspire students and their communities to respect and care for themselves, each other, and their natural and cultural environments. PVS has taught thousands of people through its education, training, research, voyaging and communication programs. The organization teaches in multiple forms of classrooms while seeking innovative methods of outreach to today's and tomorrow's children. Currently, a large part of PVS- mission-focused activities are centered around the organization's voyaging canoes, H'k'le'a and Hikianalia, and the M'lama Honua Worldwide Voyage. The canoes serve as models of island sustainability, and their crews seek to share - Island Wisdom, Ocean Connections, Global Lessons- both in Hawai'i and around Island Earth. John McCaskill is an award-winning artist and printmaker who works out of his studio on the Big Island of Hawaii and the Honolulu Printmakers' Studio in Honolulu. His original prints have been purchased by the State of Hawaii, the Honolulu Mayor's office and by private collectors worldwide. John is the former president of Jomac Graphic Communications, Inc. and is currently an instructor at the Honolulu Museum Art School.

He was the first black Archbishop of Cape Town and bishop of the Church of the Province of Southern Africa (now the Anglican Church of Southern Africa). Since the demise of apartheid, Tutu has campaigned to fight HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, poverty, racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia. He received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984; the Albert Schweitzer Prize for Humanitarianism in 1986; the Pacem in Terris Award in 1987; the Sydney Peace Prize in 1999; the Gandhi Peace Prize in 2007;[1] and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2009. He has also compiled several books of his speeches and sayings. Richards serves as a director on several public service, Native Hawaiian and educational boards, including Paepae O He'eia, Bishop Museum Association Council, and 'Aha K'ne. He has held management positions in both the public and private sector, primarily in the field of aquaculture. He spent close to two decades at The Oceanic Institute, a private non-profit research organization. Currently, Billy is the Director of Communications for Partners in Development Foundation, a public not-for-profit company that serves the Native Hawaiian community through social and educational programs. He has been involved with Hawai'i's voyaging community since 1975 and has voyaged aboard the wa'a kaulua (double-hulled voyaging canoes) H'k'le'a, Hawai'iloa, Makali'i and Hokualaka'i throughout the Pacific.
