Jane is a single kupuna living alone in her rental unit. She has multiple medical and mobility challenges that make it difficult for her to get around to get needed supplies.
Jane is a single kupuna living alone in her rental unit. She has multiple medical and mobility challenges that make it difficult for her to get around to get needed supplies.
In addition, due to her fixed income it makes it challenging for her to afford those supplies. She has a limited support system and could really benefit from any support or resources in obtaining needed supplies.
Through Christmas Eve, The Garden Island will share daily, front-page stories about families and individuals (we don’t use their real names) facing challenges and who would appreciate a little help.
The Christmas Fund is an avenue for everyone to provide that assistance. Donations are used by Zonta Club members to purchase gift certificates that are in turn distributed to families and individuals through social-service agencies.
Money goes directly to provide for those in need of Christmas presents and groceries.
If you hold a fundraiser for the Christmas Fund, let us know and we’ll spread the word. Anyone making a donation of $200 or more can have their picture published in TGI.
Donations may be made by way of the website, Zonta-Kaua‘i.org, or checks can be made payable to The Zonta Club of Kaua‘i Foundation, P.O. Box 3032, Lihu‘e, HI 96766.
