Event sponsorships, ticket sales, silent auction, and program booklet advertising sales raise funds to support the Foundation in carrying out its mission to promote and foster the development of Maui High School. 

This annual Saber celebration offers a spirit-filled evening of inspiration and unity as the Hall of Honor builds upon the future of Maui High School by honoring its legacy.
