2008 MERCEDES-BENZ DEALER CHAMPIONSHIP

The Mercedes-Benz Dealer Championship event brought in just under $10,000, which will be used to help fund our programs and services.

Mahalo nui to Fletcher Jones III and the gang at Mercedes Benz. We greatly appreciated the generous donation!


“MERCEDES”

On April 16, 2008, Mercedes Benz of Honolulu generously hosted an exclusive cocktail party on its luxury yacht "Mercedes" as an incentive to encourage Mahealani table sponsorship sales of $5,000 or more. This was the last party to take place on the beautiful ship before her return to the mainland. Those who took advantage of the special opportunity had a first class experience that only Mercedes Benz of Honolulu could create. Many thanks to AnneMarie and Fletcher Jones, III for their creativity and continued support.

ESCADA FASHION LUNCHEON

For the second year in a row, the Children's Alliance of Hawaii was the fortunate beneficiary of Escada Hawaii's annual fashion luncheon. The March 7, 2008 event offered the "by invite only" guests a stylish afternoon of lunching on delicious fare, sipping champagne and viewing the latest Escada fashions. Oh yes, and lots of shopping! Mahalo to Escada Hawaii General Manager Mariese Montano-Smith and her team for their efforts and generosity.

UMBRELLA PAINTING

On a sunny Saturday in February 2008, 15 budding artists joined teacher Dr. Lori Phillips at Kapiolani Park, to create unique masterpieces. With determination and inspiration, blank umbrella canvases were transformed into beautiful flowers, awe-inspiring sea creatures, glorious garden scenes and flirtatious fish. These one-of-a-kind creations were made available to the highest bidder at the 2008 Mahealani event. We thank our "resident artists" for their creativity and enthusiasm.

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY OPEN HOUSE

On December 14, 2007, the Children's Alliance of Hawiai hosted its inaugural Christmas Holiday Open House. Our office was beautifully decorated and full of the Holiday Spirit. Many of the work areas were overflowing with hundreds of wrapped gifts for the Christmas Angels Project. Guest assisted with decorations by writing a special childhood memory on cut-out ornaments and hanging it on beautiful and elaborately decorated Christmas trees. After touring the new office space and learning about our programs and projects, guests were treated to a delicious assortment of holiday treats. We hope you will be able to join us this year!
