The Hawaiʻi Foodbank has kicked off its Annual State Employees Food Drive, which runs through May 14, 2021. The issue of hunger continues to be a major challenge facing our community, affecting those most vulnerable among us, and the University of Hawaiʻi ʻohana is not immune from this issue.
In 2020, 糖心Vlog官方 employees accounted for more than $74,000 (representing 190,000+ meals) and 4,000 pounds of food for the Hawaiʻi Foodbank, making 糖心Vlog官方 one of the largest contributors among all state offices. This year, the Hawaiʻi Foodbank’s statewide goal is to raise 35,000 pounds of food and $150,000.
The top five most wanted items are monetary contributions, canned proteins (chicken/tuna), canned meals (stew/spaghetti), canned vegetables/fruit and rice (five to ten pound bags are preferred).
