About KICO
Dealing with the challenges of today requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks. Kico emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words (E se ko pati kae ko faiga). Established in 2015, we’re an organization driven by progressive ideas, bold actions, and a strong foundation of support. It was not the intention of establishing the Kioa Island Community Organization (KICO) to transform Kioa into a "Western Urban City," but rather to help the community and individuals improve the quality of life in Kioa.
