The Bayanihan Food Distribution is spearheaded by Binhi at Ani and co-sponsored by Bayer Crop Science Hawaiʻi, Maui Food Bank, the County of Maui, Pyramid Insurance and Maui Gold Pineapple. It is staffed by hundreds of volunteers.  

“Even though many residents are back to work, there is still a need for food assistance,” said Melen Agcolicol, president of Binhi at Ani. “We want to thank our sponsors and volunteers for their support as well as our neighbors for their patience.  Since its start in May 2020, the Bayanihan Food Distribution has raised over $43,000, enabling the distribution of 7,493 food boxes.”
