Henry Kapono to Headline Annual Fundraiser
Posted July 05, 2017
Na Hoku Hano Hano Award winner and Grammy nominated singer/songwriter, Henry Kapono, will headline Hale Makua Health Services’ annual fundraiser, Kokua for Kupuna. Guests will be treated to an evening oceanfront and under the stars on Saturday, September 9th, at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa in Ka’anapali on the Ocean Lawn. Registration will open at 4:30 p.m. with the formal program beginning at 6:00 p.m. Proceeds from the fundraiser help frail elders and disabled individuals who cannot afford healthcare services.
Kokua for Kupuna will also include an opening performance by Halemanu, a Hawaiian buffet dinner, two hosted drinks, and silent auction with over 100 fabulous items from local retailers and restaurants. Tickets are $150 for adults, $40 for keiki 5 – 12 years old, and $1,500 for a reserved table of 10 with premium seating. Tickets and tables can be purchased by calling 808.871.9271 or online at www.halemakua.org.
This year’s theme, Continuing the Journey, will pay tribute to the life and legacy of long-time Hale Makua Health Services supporter, Sue Cooley, who passed earlier this year. Over her lifetime she provided over $4.6 million in funds which made major improvements to the kitchen at Hale Makua Kahului, making it possible to efficiently prepare over 1,000 meals daily, and providing the funding needed for the organization to currently undergo a master planning process for the Hale Makua Kahului and Wailuku locations.
