Zuckerberg and Chan Donate $4 Million to Preserve 600‑Year‑Old Hawaiian Fishpond

Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan have pledged $4 million to protect Alakoko Fishpond, a 600‑year‑old aquaculture site in Hawaii threatened by environmental degradation and development pressure. The donation enables the nonprofit Mālama Hulē‘ia to acquire the property and ensure its long‑term stewardship. The project will also promote education about traditional Hawaiian aquaculture practices and native ecosystems, preserving cultural heritage and ecological knowledge for future generations.
