BROOKE SHINDO

President

Brooke is a senior at Punahou School. Growing up in Hawaii, Brooke has always taken interest in problem solving and helping others, participating in nonprofit organizations relating to the environment, healthcare, economics, athletics, education, and community service. Through Malama Hawaii, she hopes to reach more of the Hawaii community and inspire others to make a difference. Outside of school, Brooke enjoys traveling, photography, spending time with her friends and family, sports, and watching her brothers’ baseball games.

OUR STORY

Growing up with two younger brothers (Tyler and Sean) who often traveled to gain exposure to the high-level competition on the mainland, Brooke was inspired to make these events accessible to the Hawaii community. In 2021, Perfect Game Hawaii, a non-profit organization, was founded to bring provide these opportunities to the youth baseball community. Over the years, she has helped run a total of 18 tournaments and showcases throughout the state, which have allowed athletes unable to travel to have these experiences. After being appointed as president in March of 2024, Brooke raised $700,000 in stocks to further support the community and the goals of the organization. In September 2024, the name of the organization was changed to Malama Pacific Foundation to broaden the focus of the non-profit. Since then, Malama Pacific Foundation has donated to hearing loss, food insecurity, sustainability, and cyber security organizations, and looks to continue supporting goals within the community. By providing support for the initiatives of smaller non-profits, Brooke hopes to continue to inspire people to give back to our home and promote the longstanding traditions of Hawaii.
