Welcome to Maui Gives

“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.”

- Winston Churchhill

“The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.”

- Pablo Picasso

This is an issue about giving.

In the following pages, we’ll highlight a number of charities that need support from the community to continue doing the important work they do for an array of causes and at-risk groups.

Donating feels good. Whatever you can give, you should give. Pick the causes that matter to you and support the organizations that are moving them forward.

We’ve also included a gift guide featuring locally made products, and an explanation of how keeping your dollars on Maui has a positive ripple effect that extends far beyond any single business.

The holidays—however you celebrate them—are about much more than imported products and twinkling lights. They are a time to celebrate our shared humanity and to remember the ties that bind us, on-island and around the world.

Mele Kalikimaka, happy holidays, and aloha.

Staying Local

Why

By Jacob Shafer

This issue is about two things: shopping locally and giving to local charities. It’s in the holiday spirit, but these should be yearround values and practices.

To quote from Michael Shuman’s book, “Going Local”: “Going local does not mean walling off the outside world. It means nurturing locally owned businesses which use local resources sustainably, employ local workers at decent wages and serve primarily local consumers. It means becoming more self-sufficient and less dependent on imports. Control moves from the boardrooms of distant corporations and back into the community where it belongs.”

number of other organizations listed in the following pages. They help sustain our most at-risk community members and our environment. Plus, giving makes you feel good.

That’s not just feel-good jargon: a Harvard University study found that giving money to others elevated people’s happiness more than spending it on themselves.

After that, though, you should keep your dollars here by spending at local businesses. Accord-

When money stays here, it doesn’t just help business owners and their employees. It helps ensure we can retain teachers, firefighters, and other essential workers. It makes Maui work.

ing to a study by the American Independent Business Alliance, 48 cents of every dollar spent at a local, independent business are recirculated locally, compared to 14 cents for every dollar spent at corporate chain stores.

and other essential workers. It makes Maui work.

Products produced on-island— many of which we’ll highlight in this issue—are more ecologically sustainable. And they represent and sustain local people, rather than arriving from afar in a shipping container.

Of course, it’s nearly impossible to only buy local. Big-box stores have an allure. And it’s always tempting to grab things with a click.

As Sen. Brian Schatz told MauiTimes in our April Green Issue, “It’s hard to look anyone in the eye and say with a straight face that we’re going to generate all our own materials for a modern life. We first need to focus on low-hanging fruit.”

Why Buy Local?

Here Are Some Stats 48

Cents of every dollar spent at small, independent businesses that are recirculated locally.

That’s where we’re aiming with this issue: keeping resources on Maui.

The first, most obvious tier is donating to the Maui Food Bank, for example, or the Maui Nui Marine Resource Council, or any

That has a ripple effect, especially on a small island. When money stays here, it doesn’t just help business owners and their employees. It helps ensure we can retain teachers, firefighters,

That said, especially during the holiday season, it’s a worthy goal to shop as much as possible at small businesses and to purchase things made on Maui. That’s the low-hanging fruit (or fruitcake). Local edibles and drinkables are fresher. Local wearables and decorative items are more unique.

So: give generously. Shop Locally. Help those in need. Sustain the ‘aina. Keep your dollars on Maui.

It feels good. It is good. It’s the right thing to do.

The environment. Pets. The hungry. The houseless. The keiki. The kupuna. Maui is full of charities and nonprofits doing important work, and they all need your help. What follows is a list of worthy organizations, with some information about who they are and what they do. We encourage you to choose the ones that speak to you, contact them, find out what they need, and give. It’s in the holiday spirit, but please consider continuing to donate when you can throughout the year. It’ll warm your heart—and it makes a real difference.
