Aloha MHLA Members,
The Maui Hotel & Lodging Association believes that to support the health of our local economy, we must invest energy and finances into our youth and those coming into potential, future, leadership positions. The 27th Annual Excellence in Education golf tournament, presented by Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits, will take place on Friday, August 16, 2024. This event will bring together MHLA members to raise scholarship funds that will support students in the Academy of Hospitality & Tourism programs, UH Maui College Hospitality and Culinary academies, and the MHLA Member Scholarship program.
At last year's event, the amazing support of our members and industry partners enabled us to raise $42,000 in scholarship funds. Additionally, a generous donation was made to the Maui Junior Golf Association. This highlights MHLA's dedication to giving back to the community.
The tournament will be attended by 132 MHLA members and their partners. We are seeking your support to keep our scholarship program running. To sustain our exceptional scholarship program, we kindly request your support. Whether you choose to sponsor a team and/or contribute four team prizes to be awarded at the event, your involvement will have a significant impact. Any support is valued and will help us continue our work to support Maui's outstanding student scholars.
On behalf of the association and the Golf Committee – Mahalo for your consideration!
Mahalo,
MHLA
