#NourishOurOhana

This Year’s Food Drive Day Will Help Raise Funds to Support Our Maui ‘Ohana

Our thoughts are with our Maui ‘ohana and everyone impacted by the devastating wildfires. At Hawai‘i Foodbank Kaua‘i, we are actively working to support our neighbors on Maui and our partners at Maui Food Bank. We have been asked to coordinate donations of food, water and supplies from O‘ahu and the continental United States to Maui Food Bank.

With the recent wildfires, there is an urgent, growing need for food assistance in our communities. We’ve learned from many disasters in the past that the road to recovery is long. As Maui Food Bank actively works to assess needs, we are committed to providing them support while continuing to meet the nutritional needs of the 1 in 6 Hawai‘i residents struggling with hunger daily.

Donations made toward Food Drive Day will support Hawai‘i Foodbank’s Maui Relief Fund.

There Are Three Easy Ways to Help:

Celebrating 40 Years of Nourishing Our ‘Ohana

Hawai‘i Foodbank has been working to nourish our ‘ohana for 40 years now. But what exactly does that mean? Nourishing our ‘ohana isn’t just about filling plates. When you feed someone, you’re also sharing aloha, extending dignity and providing hope for a better tomorrow.

And that better tomorrow starts with increasing access to safe and nutritious food today. Health and hunger are deeply connected, and Hawai‘i Foodbank is committed to being the healthy option for those experiencing hunger.

When we nourish our ‘ohana today, we can end hunger tomorrow.
