Lace Up for a Cause: Join Us at the 2025 Kauaʻi Charity Walk
Aloha Holo Holo fam! 🌺 Mark your calendars and get your sneakers ready because one of the year’s most heartwarming—and heart-pumping—events is right around the corner. The 2025 Kauaʻi Charity Walk is happening on Saturday, May 3rd, at Vidinha Stadium Soccer Field, and you definitely don’t want to miss it!
As a proud sponsor of this year’s event, we at Holo Holo Charters are all in—and we hope you’ll be, too.
What’s the Kauaʻi Charity Walk All About?
If you’re new to the event, here’s the scoop. The Charity Walk was founded in 1974 by the Hawaiʻi Lodging & Tourism Association (HLTA) and its non-profit extension, the Hawaiʻi Hotel Industry Foundation.
What started as a local initiative has grown into a powerhouse of aloha—expanding statewide in 1978 and now held every May across Hawaiʻi, Kauaʻi, Lānaʻi, Maui, Molokaʻi, and Oʻahu.
It’s become Hawaiʻi’s largest single-day fundraising event by a non-profit organization, raising over $47 million to date in support of local non-profits and charities.
Yep, you read that right—$47 million!
Last Year Was Big. This Year, We’re Going Even Bigger!
In 2024, the Kauaʻi Charity Walk raised over $620,000, directly benefitting more than 60 local non-profit organizations. That’s everything from youth programs and food pantries to animal shelters and care for our kūpuna.
Our island community needs our help in big ways, so this year, we’ve set our sights even higher: $700,000 is the 2025 fundraising goal—and with your help, we can totally crush it!
We have awesome leaders steering the ship this year. The 2025 Kauaʻi Charity Walk Chair is Aaron Bambling, General Manager of Kōloa Landing Resort, joined by Co-Chair Michael Murphy, General Manager of the Grand Hyatt Kauaʻi Resort & Spa.
Their strong leadership skills and deep commitment to giving back to Kauaʻi are shaping one incredible community day that promises a giant success! But not without YOU!

Why It Matters: Supporting Kauaʻi’s Non-Profits
Sure, a morning stroll with friends and neighbors is great. But the real magic of the Kauaʻi Charity Walk is in its impact.
When you register, donate, or volunteer, you’re helping local organizations continue their incredible work—feeding hungry families, supporting education, protecting our ʻāina, and caring for our keiki and kūpuna.
This is more than a fundraiser. It’s a love note to Kauaʻi and her people.
