Community powered, community lead.
PIK2AR is a strength-based ecosystem of programs and events that aim to eliminate violence, empower, improve health, and give dignity and hope by increasing personal and financial growth into ethnic and underserved households.
We promote and perpetuate all Pacific Island cultures, create alliances, and bridge communities through sharing resources, education, and offering support.
We meet people where they’re at and help them get to where they want to be.
Our Programs
Arts & Humanities
Art is a powerful tool to perpetuate and preserve our traditional art forms while also bringing them into the present through modern interpretations.
We host art workshops, artist meet-ups, and other opportunities for our Pasifika artists of all mediums to gather and collaborate. Whether you’re a painter, dancer, writer, or filmmaker, our artist-run arts program is focused on creative fulfillment and sustainability.
Economic Development
Our community is buzzing with the entrepreneurial spirit and through our Pacific Island Chamber of Commerce and associated initiatives we promote the growth and advancement of our Pacific Island community.
If you’re looking for help starting or maintaining your business, we hope you’ll trust us to find the resources to assist you to the next level of your business journey.
Empowered Living & Social Services
Knowledge is power and our organization was built on the idea that knowledge should be adequate enough to help you take action.
This program covers our direct, social services such as our peer support groups, case managing, and community health workers. To take advantage of opportunities, you have to feel empowered to take that next step, and we aid our community in taking that next step!
