The Hawai`i Chamber of Commerce of Northern California (HCCNC) was launched in 1999 with its primary mission to serve as a resource for businesses, organizations and individuals in the Bay Area with ties to Hawai`i and to serve as a bridge between the Bay Area and Hawai`i. This mission has grown to promote higher education in Hawai`i and Hawaiian culture. With a dedicated board of diverse backgrounds and a subscriber base of 2,000 strong, the HCCNC is proof that the Aloha spirit is alive and well in the San Francisco Bay Area.
