In the last two years, members of Molokai Quilters Guild have sewn and donated approximately 30 or more lap blankets, pillows, and fidget mats that are so appreciated by our patients.

Hot Pursuit Postponed
In light of the ongoing spread of COVID-19 and the unprecedented speed at which things are changing around us, Navian Hawaii has and will continue to take the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of our patients, staff, volunteers and the community.
In order to do our part to slow down the transmission and spread of the virus, we have made the decision to postpone this year’s Hot Pursuit scheduled for April 25, 2020. The fundraising event will be rescheduled at a later date, when the time is right.
A special mahalo to all of our sponsors for supporting our mission and to the teams who have registered thus far. We look forward to when we can say the race is back on!
