In this week’s episode of From Hawaii With Love, we talk Mangos and Money. Hear all about Hawaii’s extraordinary spirit of giving, from informal sharing among neighbors to formal, charitable gifts. You’ll meet Darcie Yukimura, Philanthropic Services Officer at Hawaii Community Foundation (HCF), a public, statewide, charitable services and grantmaking organization supported by donor contributions for the benefit of Hawaii’s people. She’ll share what it is like to have HCF most recently receive a historic $50 million gift from Ebay founder Pierre Omidyar and his wife Pam, as well as preliminary results from a recent study that reveals interesting giving habits of Hawaii residents. You’ll also learn about the activities of some of Hawaii’s non-profit organizations and the value of reciprocity, which holds a special place in the customs and lifestyle of Hawaii people.
