American Savings Bank is proud to announce that its 2024 Kahiau Giving Campaign has raised $443,000. The charitable contribution will support five local nonprofits in their efforts to improve the quality of life for Hawaiʻi residents. More than 90% of ASB teammates participated in the annual workplace giving initiative, which began in 2011.

Two Maui community emergency hubs that have been supporting the needs of those harmed by the wildfire disaster are now partnering with Kupu: The Kāʻanapali Hub and Nāpili Hub are now able to provide paid positions via Kupu while they continue to meet the urgent needs of their community. As the initial phase of this partnership, Kupu’s EŌ Maui has 15 participants on payroll between the two hubs.  

Part-time and full-time Nā Manu ʻElele positions are open on the islands of Hawaiʻi, Maui, Oʻahu, Molokaʻi, and Kauaʻi.   The deadline to apply is Oct. 27, 2023.

As part of this relief effort, UHMC culinary students will prepare 1,800-2,500 meals daily to feed Maui residents who have transitioned from emergency shelters to hotels and other temporary housing situations. The number of meals and residents served will adjust based on changing needs. For their time, UHMC culinary students will receive $16 an hour, a $1,459 Education Award provided by AmeriCorps, and access to health care benefits. 

Kupu, a conservation and youth education organization, announced that this is the last week to apply for the 2023-2024 Kupu ʻĀina Corps program on Maui. Kupu is actively seeking host sites and participants to work in sustainability-focused sectors like renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, and climate adaptation on Maui. 

The HYCC summer program is a seven-week opportunity that runs from June 7 – July 23, 2021, providing young adults typically between the ages of 17-22 with meaningful field service experience into the world of conservation while giving back to the community.

The completed phase marks a new milestone in restoring and regenerating Pōhakuokalā Gulch, an important watershed in Upper Kula – the project also creating jobs for the unemployed in 2020.

Hawaiʻi priorities have been successfully secured in the Natural Resources Management Act that passed the Senate on Tuesday in a 92-8 vote.

Programs provide unique hands-on green job training and environmental stewardship experiences

A group of youth volunteers spent recent weeks planting thousands of native trees on the leeward slopes of Haleakalā as part of an effort aimed at restoring dryland habitat for endangered native plant and bird species including the Kiwikiu bird, which numbered only 500 at last report.
