“Inspired by the stories of “Puuhonua O Waianae,” the homeless community in West Oahu documented beautifully by Civil Beat last month, our staff — led by VP of Sales and General Manager Colleen Yasuhara and CEO Faith Geronimo — sought out a way to help. We connected with Tyrell’s Angels, founded to support homeless children, which has worked with the Waianae camp for more than three years. We then kicked off a donation drive to fulfill the kids’ wishes on the ‘Angel Tree’ as well as gather gifts and supplies for their families.”
