Psalms 121:1-2
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
      from whence cometh my help.
      My help cometh from the LORD,
      which made heaven and earth.

We Welcome Your Support

As Kahu prayed on December 30, 1985:

Dear Lord, our loving and heavenly Father who calls us to glorify and enjoy thee through ministries to mankind, we thank thee for this Foundation and its promise for today and tomorrow. Let it be as thy good seed, planted where you would have us go that brings forth fruits of love, joy, peace, faith, and hope to those in need, that uplifts the life of our Native Hawaiian people, that supports the work of the church and brings peace on earth to all people. Use this Foundation, and us, O Lord, as instruments of thy aloha and peace, In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

To this end, we have endeavored to fulfill Kahu Akaka's dream through his Ministries Foundation.

If you would like to make a donation during the month of September, please consider doing so through Foodland's Give Aloha program. This program honors Foodland's founder, Maurice J. "Sully" Sullivan, and continues his legacy of giving back to the community.

How It Works

From September 1-30, customers are invited to make donations of up to $249 to participating Hawaii non-profit organizations at checkout. Donations are accepted at any Foodland, Sack N Save or Foodland Farms checkout. Foodland and the Western Union Foundation will match a portion of each donation. Individuals must use their own Maika'i membership to make a donation. Donations made without a Maika'i membership will not be matched.

How to Donate

At checkout, present your Maika'i card (or provide your member number), or enter your phone number and inform the cashier that you would like to make a donation to Rev. Abraham Kahu Akaka Ministries Foundation, code number 78708. If you do not have a Maika'i card/member number, you can establish one by entering your phone number at checkout. Your donation will be added to your grocery purchase total. You may donate up to $249 per organization; any portion exceeding $249 will not be matched. The amount you donate and the name of our organization will appear on your receipt. Donations must be payable to Foodland or Sack N Save.

Acknowledgement of Your Donation

Donor names will not be released to our organization. Therefore, if you would like to us to know of your gift, please contact us directly so that we may properly acknowledge your gift. You may ask the cashier for a duplicate receipt to submit to us.

Are These Contributions Tax Deductible?

These contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Please save your store receipt for tax purposes since it will be the only record you will have of your donation(s).

Matching Gift

Matching gifts will be determined at the end of the program. Our organization will receive 100% of all customer donations given to us, plus each donation made with a Maika'i membership, will be partially matched by a gift from Foodland and the Western Union Foundation.
