MOANALUA GARDENS COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
The Moanalua Gardens Community Association (MGCA) was established in 1960 by like-minded neighbors who wanted to give a voice to their community concerns without the regulation of City Neighborhood Boards.
MGCA meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 7 PM
via this Zoom link.

MGCA has served as a community organization to promote the general welfare of Moanalua Gardens residents and the people of Moanalua through advocacy and programming events. Following the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency in the United States and Hawaii, MGCA resumed operations
in fall 2023. Your MGCA is here to serve and promote the well-being of people in our Moanalua Gardens community.
Any adult can be a MGCA member! Residency in Moanalua Gardens is NOT required.
