30th Annual Maui Visitor Industry Charity Walk
Each year residents of Maui, Hawaii come out to support charitable groups with a 5 mile walk. Most of the walkers were employees of area hotels and resorts.
The Maui News reported:
More than 1,100 walkers joined the 30th annual Visitor Industry Charity Walk, a five-mile jaunt Saturday for Maui nonprofit organizations that began and ended at the War Memorial Soccer field.
A total of $294,637 was raised for Maui charities.
Participants walked on behalf of a wide variety of non profit organizations. Each person chose a charity and got pledges for that organization. Kelsey Wiegman was the top individual fundraiser, who collected $12,287 for Hawaii Canines for Independence.
