Maui Food Bank
Our readers gave the nod to Maui Food Bank last year, and apparently saw no reason to change their minds this year. And why not? The place serves food to about 10,000 people every month–people on Maui who would otherwise go hungry. “A statewide network of suppliers allows the Maui Food Bank to turn each dollar donated into 6 lbs. of non-perishable groceries, as well as fresh produce, bread, meat, fish and poultry,” the organization states on its website. “This year the Maui Food Bank will distribute over 1.5 million pounds of food to the hungry.” Maui Food Bank is run by good people doing very good and necessary work, and it’s nice 760 Kolu St., Wailuku; 808-243-9500; Mauifoodbank.org. @apignataro
