• The 36th annual Honolulu City Lights is just around the corner as Shaka Santa and Tutu Mele were set up today in front of Honolulu Hale wearing tropical-print face masks. The display won’t be as elaborate as in years past and there will be no parade, tree lighting ceremony, kiddie rides and foods—all to ensure public safety during this time of COVID-19. The official light up is December 9! “Drive-bys” are encouraged! 📷: courtesy of @sarahi808 #hawaii #oahu #honolulu #honolulucitylights #shakasanta #christmas2020 #thisweekhawaii #luckywelivehawaii

  • The mission of @pearlharboraviationmuseum -- Remembering Pearl Harbor, and honoring and preserving the battlefield on which the Museum operates to ensure that the legacy of our Greatest Generation is carried forward -- continues on even in these days. In fact, the COVID-19 crisis has highlighted the importance of understanding history as we recognize parallels of our current situation to that of World War II. With that in mind, consider a gift to the #PearlHarborAviationMuseum on this #GivingTuesdayNow. . . . #history #WWII #pearlharbor #thegreatestgeneration #thisweekoahu #thisweekhawaii

  • Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement usually held near the end of the year, but today, Tuesday, May 5, a special Giving Tuesday event is taking place as a response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19. Now celebrating its 40th year as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, the @pacificwhalefoundation has never wavered in its mission to protect the oceans through science, advocacy and inspiring environmental stewardship. Much of their programming has been closed since March 19 because of the current crisis, and as we now enter our third month of the stay-at-home order, they could really, really use our help. To help raise funds, they're conducting an online auction. Visit pacificwhale.org/auction, where you will find items such as artwork, Lilly Pulitzer reusable water bottles, commemorative shirts, dinnerware, $5 donation options and more. The event begins at 12:00am HST, Tuesday, May 5th and will end at 11:55pm HST Tuesday, May 12. . . . #givingtuesdaynow #pacificwhalefoundation #pacwhaleecoadventures #pacwhale#humpbackwhale #environmentalstewardship #protecttheocean #thisweekmaui #thisweekhawaii

  • Practice social distancing while supporting local restaurants! #foodagogohi and #elitedelivery (@eliteparkinghawaii) have partnered up to provide home-delivered meals from some of Honolulu's best restaurants! This is great for those of us who are homebound, but it's also great for the restaurants who still get to serve up delicious meals to their customers! And while there's a delivery fee for diners, Elite Delivery doesn't take a fee from the restaurant—the restaurant receives 100% of your food order—so everybody wins here! Visit foodagogo.org to browse your favorite restaurants and start making your lunch or dinner plans now!

  • Current events have upended everyone's lives, from working individuals and families to our small businesses and restaurants. Seeing an opportunity to help, @viaggiohonolulu in Kakaʻako have stepped up to help the community. They've ceased their take-out and delivery dining options in order to utilize their kitchens to help feed those in need. The project is known as the Aloha Lives Here Campaign, created both to help feed those in need and to help local food distributors stay in business as so many of their customers have canceled or greatly reduced their usual orders. They buy their food in bulk at wholesale prices to help the distributors, then Chef Jeffrey Vigilla creates and cooks the meals. The meals are then distributed through partner organizations like the Show Aloha Challenge and Aloha Harvest. Aloha Lives Here is currently creating approximately 500 meals per week. To learn more about Aloha Lives Here and to donate or order a shirt, visit alohaliveshere.net. Families in need of food assistance can email Fraser directly for more information. . . . #alohaliveshere #viaggiohonolulu #helpingothers #givingback #supportlocal #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocalrestaurants #kakaako #honolulu #oahu #thisweekhawaii #thisweekoahu
