a mission to nourish
Maui Emergency Feeding Taskforce believes that no one should ever go hungry and supports long-term sustainability for individuals and communities affected by Maui’s 2023 disasters. All of Maui’s people deserve access to nourishing food during times of crisis to create family stability so that they can thrive. Our programs invest in the long-term sustainability for a healthier, local food system.
