Program fuels support for nonprofit
The Maui Farm recently received a donation of $6,026.57 from Ohana Fuels’ “Fuel Up. Do Good.” community giving program. Ohana Fuels partners with nonprofits that serve the local community by donating a portion of every gallon of gasoline purchased from stations within the area. The Maui Farm — a transitional housing and farm-based, family-centered program, which helps families become and remain self-sufficient — intends to use the funds to support women and children in its family strengthening program. The funds will also be used for supplies to maintain and repair the homes and facilities on its 8-acre campus and educational farm.
