Fundraisers for state sanctioned organizations, such as Aloha United Way<\/a> (AUW<\/abbr>) continue to navigate the pandemic in their efforts to support those most affected by it. One University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at M\u0101noa<\/a> vendor is repeating a successful collaboration to deliver the goods it\u2019s known for while helping out a worthy cause.<\/abbr><\/p>\n

Keo & Company<\/a> held a farmer\u2019s market at the UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Campus Center twice a week for 20 years. Students and employees purchased fresh fruits, vegetables and sometimes plants.<\/p>\n

Since the campus has been considerably empty since last year, Keo and her team worked with the administration on a Community Aina Box that would feature a variety of fresh produce for $30, with $5 of each purchase going to AUW<\/abbr>.<\/abbr><\/p>\n

Purchases can be made online<\/a> through Friday, October 8, 2021, and free delivery for Oʻahu<\/span> is included.<\/p>\n
