Palolo Chinese Home: Our Story

In 1896, a forward-thinking group of community leaders recognized the pressing need to support Chinese immigrant men left without recourse following the closure of plantations. This led to the establishment of Palolo Chinese Home. The same ethos of compassion and dedication to assisting others endures to this day. Rooted in the Chinese value of "filial piety" - a profound sense of responsibility toward elderly family members - Palolo Chinese Home has upheld this cultural tradition for over a century, extending its services to the entire Hawaiian community. Today, Palolo Chinese Home stands as a preferred and premier provider of long-term care, catering to the diverse needs of men and women from all ethnic backgrounds in Hawaii's families.
