In addition to its economic impact, the Made In Hawai‘i Festival remains committed to supporting those in need. This year, ticket purchasers helped raise nearly $7,500 for the Hawai‘i Foodbank. Recognizing the importance of this cause, Hawaii Food Industry Association and festival officials decided to match the donations, bringing the total contribution to $15,000. This donation comes at a critical time, as nearly 30% of Hawai‘i households continue to experience food insecurity.

“The success of this year’s festival reflects the incredible spirit and resilience of our community,” says Lauren Zirbel, President & Executive Director of the HFIA. “By matching the donations raised, we’re honored to support the Hawai‘i Foodbank’s mission to help feed those in need across our islands. This collaboration not only uplifts our local businesses and entrepreneurs but also strengthens the very fabric of our community by ensuring that no one goes hungry.”

Amy Miller, President & CEO of the Hawai‘i Foodbank, expressed her gratitude: “We are incredibly grateful to the Made in Hawai‘i Festival and HFIA for their partnership. With 30% of Hawai‘i households experiencing food insecurity, this donation will provide over 32,000 meals to our community, helping us continue to serve those in need.”
