According to Rotary Maui Resource Team Leader Joanne Laird, this is the 18th consecutive year of Rotary-sponsored school supply drives on Maui.

“Members of the two Rotary Clubs of West Maui are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children in need,” Laird said. “We are grateful for the support of the management of the Lahaina Cannery Mall to allow our clubs to host these two days of collections for our keiki.”

The school supplies drives are community service projects sponsored by the 10 Rotary clubs on Maui. Rotary is a leadership organization made up of local businesses, professional and civic leaders.
