#highway hui award
Two Molokaʻi churches lauded for highway cleanups
The Heart of Aloha Church and Tenrikyo Molokaʻi received the Adopt-A-Highway Nō Ka ʻOi Highway Hui Award for the fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025, respectively. Both churches and their volunteers have regularly picked up trash along a two-mile segment of highway for the past eight or more years, helping to prevent roadside rubbish from blowing into the ocean or other sensitive ecosystems.
Maui couple awarded for personal commitments to highway clean up
Highways Maui District praised the husband-and-wife team’s personal commitment to caring for Hāna Highway between mileposts 8 and 10, a two-mile segment adopted by Ensign Hawaiian Art and Hypnosis Hawaiʻi, the names of John and Barbara’s respective businesses. The duo has been picking up litter along their route every few months since 2016, typically removing 10 bags of trash each time.
