Maui United Way, a leading nonprofit serving Maui, Moloka‘i and Lāna‘i, has appointed Jeeyun Lee as its new Chief Executive Officer. Lee most recently served as the organization’s Director of Community Impact and as Interim CEO since July 2025. She will oversee a close-knit team of five staff, facilitating nearly sixty programs and a budget of over $5 million.
This is the third year Sentry will make donations on behalf of the players, contributing $2,000 for each of the 60 golfers who would have earned a spot in the field. The company will direct $1,000 of each contribution to Maui United Way, and players selected a Maui nonprofit to receive $1,000. Organizations receiving funding include Big Brothers Big Sisters of Maui, Boys & Girls Clubs of Maui, First Tee-Maui, Hawaiʻi Community Foundation-Maui Strong Fund, Maui Food Bank, Aloha Puʻu Kukui, and Save Maui Cats.
Maui United Way organized efforts this past Saturday to protect one Lahainaluna High School and the surrounding community. Recognized as the oldest school west of the Rockies, Lahainaluna holds deep cultural, educational and historic significance.
Sitting upwind of Lahaina town, the campus needed a critical buffer against future wildfires, especially during a season of severe drought.
Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikīkī Beach Resort has partnered with Lahaina Brew Co. to launch “Raise a Glass for Maui,” a year-long fundraising initiative supporting Maui wildfire recovery efforts. Through Aug. 15, 2026, the resort will donate $1 from every glass of Rainbow Pale Ale purchased at Tropics Bar & Grill, Tapa Bar, and Hau Tree Bar to Maui United Way.
