Aging is a natural part of life, but it often comes with challenges, especially for our kūpuna who wish to remain in their own homes. Maintaining a safe and comfortable living environment can become increasingly difficult with age, but programs like “A Brush with Kindness” are stepping in to provide invaluable support.
This Habitat for Humanity Maui initiative focuses on home preservation and aims to assist low-income homeowners with essential home repairs, maintenance and improvements at no cost.
The program offers more than just home repair. It’s a lifeline for many kūpuna who might otherwise struggle to remain in their homes. By addressing critical home maintenance needs, the program helps prevent accidents, reduce the risk of illness and enhance overall well-being. Additionally, having a safe and well-maintained home means more than just physical security. It’s about dignity, independence and peace of mind, ensuring they can age in a safe and supportive environment.
As we look toward the future, it’s essential to continue supporting such initiatives. We need to remember the profound impact that a helping hand can have on all of our lives — but especially the lives of our beloved kūpuna. For them, your impact is priceless.
