Supporting Local Nonprofits That Uplift Our Communities
We’re especially grateful for the opportunity to give back to the place we call home. Our team recently donated over 30 five-gallon bags of sheets, towels, and blankets to Waikiki Health, a local organization that provides essential medical and social services to Hawai‘i’s most vulnerable residents. Our donations went to Waikiki Health’s Next Step Shelter in Kaka‘ako, where they’re helping ensure clients have privacy and comfort during their stay.
Waikiki Health offers affordable, accessible Medical, Dental, Optometry, Behavioral Health, Pharmacy, and Social Services to anyone in need, regardless of their ability to pay. You can learn more about their impactful work or make a donation at https://www.waikikihealth.org/
