The 5th Annual ʻOhana Fest, themed “A Journey to Mālama ʻOhana,” is taking place this Saturday, April 26 from 10 am to 2 pm on the Great Lawn at the University of Hawaiʻi Maui College. The free, family-friendly event will include more than 30 community resource booths, cultural activities, games, raffle prizes and giveaways. This year’s theme focuses on strengthening family bonds, healing, and building resilience as the community continues to recover from the wildfire disaster. It’s all part of a series of community events this month to raise awareness about child abuse and neglect prevention in Maui County presented by the Hoʻoikaika Partnership, a coalition of more than 75 organizations and individuals.
