This thought came about because of the drought that had occurred recently on Hawai’i Island.

As someone who lives on catchment, when there is no rain there is basically no free water. There is already existing water hauling companies but they had been booked a week out which is really bad. But this shows that there is a demand for water of course. That is why I want to create a hauling company that can run 24/7 just hauling water to residents in Puna.

An update on my idea (07/29/23); Create Evangelista’s Water Hauling as a Non-profit. First people to hire would be veteran students, then college students who show entrepreneurship skills, etc. As a non-profit, I would be able to give scholarships to students who meet certain requirements, to both HawCC and UHHilo.

I still need to research on how to even start it but that is my idea.

A fleet of about 3 or 4 trucks that run 24/7 with drivers on shifts.
