In April, MDX Hawai‘i lent a hand to a nonprofit known for lending many hands to kūpuna in need.
OurKupuna.com connects volunteer sponsors who are free of COVID-19 with members of the community who are in need. Sponsors pick up and deliver groceries, medication and necessary supplies, and also run various errands.
To date, OurKupuna.com has helped nearly 450 individuals. The $5,000 donation from MDX Hawai‘i staff and matching funds from the company helped support 125 individuals in need.
“The support we have received through the philanthropic efforts of MDX Hawai‘i and their employees is just heart-warming,” says Executive Director Gabe Amey. “This generous gift enables us to further our mission to provide Hawai‘i’s elders with food security and access to essentials.”
“Supporting programs like OurKupuna.com allows MDX Hawai‘i to help kūpuna from a different perspective,” said MDX Hawai’i Market President Scott Whiting. “We’re proud to present this gift to OurKupuna.com and to be a part of this amazing effort.” Visit www.MDXHawaii.com.
