With the success of our initial fundraising auction, we realized we could support more than one charity. So we asked YOU, our wonderful supporters, to share with us the charities that are near and dear to your heart. Through this process, we experieced a full circle moment.  A couple that supported our first auction nominated @life360_hi, and once again we fell in love with this charity’s mission. The work this charity does is infectious…like, we just wanna hang out with them, learn from them, grow from them, and see how they work their magic.  You’ve never felt such a feeling of awe mixed with energy, respect and acceptance. Life 360 Network’s mentors tirelessly devote their time and energy to passionately help and nurture Hawaii's at-risk youth and young adults, most of which come from the projects. By coaching and teaching life skills such as honor, respect, and work ethic, they empower the youth of Hawaii to turn their lives around. They allow them to DREAM through healthy expressions of dance, exercise and creative studios! Life 360 Network creates positive change in the community, one life at a time. At the end of every day, no child leaves hungry, and the staff often provides food out of their own personal pockets. At the end of the day, every child gets home safely, and the staff uses their own vehicles to get them there. What are their biggest needs?  A kitchen, vehicles, lights and electricity, a sound system, internet access (the kids do their homework by using the mentor’s hot spots!)…and a bigger facility so that more kids can come into the program.  Their needs are simple but their hearts are huge.  Won’t you support them?  You’ll feel SO GOOD that you did!  #lovegiveshawaii19
After hours upon hours of researching Hawaii based charities, LGH stumbled upon @familypromiseofhawaii and was immediately intrigued. So what did we do next? We met with the director of FPH and visited their center….to say we were blown away is an understatement. They specifically work to help families with young children experiencing homelessness transition into sustainable independence. 95% of the families who have gone through Family Promise of Hawaii’s program do not return back to homelessness. WOW! How do they do this?  They accept families into their program and house them while providing everything the families need so that they can save their money to transition into permanent housing.  To give you an idea of the services they offer, they provide bedding, food, showers, laundry facilities, diapers!!!, financial training, a computer lab to search for housing and jobs, strollers, car seats, a play center with books and toys for the children….you name it, they have it for their families.  Thinking about these children otherwise being on the streets is heartbreaking. What an HONOR it is for Love Gives Hawaii to support Family Promise of Hawaii! Brides, grooms and vendors, your donations and bids are doing magical things.  Will you support Family Promise of Hawaii? #lovegiveshawaii19
We’re so excited, and we just can’t hide it! Love Gives Hawaii is thrilled to announce our next auction, all to raise money for two of Hawaii’s amazing charities!  This year, we will be doing an online auction which not only allows couples to bid for their wedding vendors from the comfort of their home, but also allows destination couples to bid from across the globe.  How AWESOME is that!? Brides and grooms, mark your calendars for the online bidding time frame:  November 7-November 11, 2019.  The two charities chosen are @familypromiseofhawaii and @life360_hi (both will be featured in our next posts). Vendors, be on the lookout for information emailed to you.  Please help to spread the word and share in this amazing mission.  Oahu has the best community of wedding and event professionals who are inspired to give hope and support to the people of Hawaii!
