The University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> aims to touch lives, restore hope and build a healthier and stronger community through the 2021 Oʻahu<\/span> Aloha United Way<\/a> (AUW<\/abbr>) campaign, which runs through October 8.<\/p>\n

For many years, UH<\/abbr> has been a strong partner to AUW<\/abbr> thanks to the UH<\/abbr> ʻohana and hopes to continue this tradition with a 2021 goal of $200,000. With the current pandemic environment, the economic hardships for many Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> households has increased dramatically.<\/p>\n

\"Aloha<\/p>\n

AUW<\/abbr> actively works to protect the health, safety, and well-being of our communities as Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> continues to confront the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It works with 1,500-plus companies and 300-plus nonprofit partner agencies to reach every part of the community. With the core understanding that sustainable change cannot be developed in isolation, AUW<\/abbr> depends on supporters who share its vision of a better life for the community today and for generations to come.<\/p>\n

Every dollar contributed through AUW<\/abbr>\u2019s campaign stays in Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>, touching the lives of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>\u2019s children and families, friends, and neighbors. All donations enable AUW<\/abbr> and its partner agencies to help address the greatest needs in the community. The programs supported through the AUW<\/abbr> campaign help prepare keiki for kindergarten and keep them on a path to succeed in school, research health challenges, feed the hungry, care for the elderly and ill who need assistance, rehouse homeless families, and so much more.<\/p>\n

UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa, Kapiʻolani<\/span> Community College, Leeward CC<\/abbr> and Windward CC<\/abbr> employees can donate through AUW<\/abbr> ePledge<\/a>.<\/p>\n
