MEDB to host annual STEM education fundraiser, Aug. 23

The Maui Economic Development Board will host its annual Ke Alahele Education Fund Benefit Dinner & Auction on Saturday, Aug. 23, 2025, at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa in Kā‘anapali.

This year’s theme, “Pathways to Our Future,” celebrates its mission to advance STEM education and empower the next generation of innovators in Maui Nui.

The evening begins with a reception and silent auction at 4:30 p.m., followed by dinner at 6:00 p.m. Highlights of the event include:

• The Apples for Education Auction, featuring one-of-a-kind items and experiences
• The signature interactive team game, spurring fun competition among tables
• Inspiring stories from local students motivated by STEM

Proceeds from the event will benefit MEDB’s STEM programs, which provide educational opportunities for students from kindergarten to careers—equipping them with the skills to lead Maui toward a resilient and sustainable future.

A special room rate is available for attendees at the Hyatt Regency Maui, and complimentary shuttle service between Central Maui and the resort will be provided with advance reservation.
