Aloha, Family and friends of Hawaii foodbank We are pleased to share the many accomplishments of our 36th year of serving Hawaii's hungry. Thank you for your continued support that helped feed 1 in 8 people in Hawaii, including 53,000 keiki. Through your generosity and belief in Hawaii Foodbank, we distributed more than 12 million pounds of food in 2019. With the help of our food partner network, which includes more than 200 charitable agencies and food bank programs, we provided food for nearly 9.5 million meals to feed the hungry in our communities. It was a year of new opportunities and exciting growth for Hawaii Foodbank's programs. In 2019, our Food 4 Keiki School Pantry program expanded to eight schools on O‘ahu. In addition, we launched two additional Keiki Pantries at the Kalihi YMCA Teen Center and Hoa ‘Aina O Makaha, which serve five more schools nearby. Going into the 2019-2020 school year, we also laid important groundwork for the Food 4 Keiki program on Kaua‘i. We prepared for the school year by installing School Pantry equipment at five different schools, including our first high school — Kaua‘i High School. In addition to our core work of gathering and distributing food, our focus on public policy and advocacy is now a critical component to Hawaii Foodbank’s work, as well. In the coming year, we will continue to focus on important issues that pertain to our role as an advocate and voice for our hungry ‘ohana. I am extremely grateful to report the organization ended 2019 with improved finances, as well. Our hard work and service were recognized by Charity Navigator, the leading charity evaluator in the United States. For the 10th consecutive year, Hawaii Foodbank attained Charity Navigator’s coveted 4-star rating for demonstrating strong financial health and commitment to accountability and transparency. Charity Navigator evaluates 1.5 million charities across the country, and only two percent have received at least 10 consecutive 4-star evaluations. This exceptional designation demonstrates our trustworthiness to the public. Donors want accountability, transparency and results — and we have delivered. This did not happen by chance or because of our respected reputation, alone. Rather, it is the result of extremely hard work by compassionate people who are committed to serving our community. Through it all, we know none of this is possible without the dedicated support of our donors, food partner agencies, local growers, food manufacturers, corporate partners, volunteers, staff, Board of Directors and entire community. Your passion, compassion and ongoing commitment bring us closer to achieving the goal of a hunger-free Hawaii. Humbly, we say, "Mahalo."
