The 35th Annual Visitors Industry Charity Walk will be held on Saturday, May 11, 2013. This annual event is held on all the main Hawaiian islands and all monies raised on the island stay on that island and benefit it’s non-profits and charities. All of the money that we raise on Maui will go directly to the non-profits and Charities here on Maui. Last year Maui raised $613,025 which was more money raised than O’ahu. This is a time for the community to pull together to raise money and awareness for the non-profits and Charities on Maui.

Maui Condo and Home is a proud sponsor of this event and each year we generously provide an aid station for the walkers participating in the event. We hand out bottled water, fruit and many other snacks and offer our aloha and encouragement to those walking for Maui’s charities.
