March 2023

Social Workers Month

March is Social Work Month, a time to thank our social workers and recognize the important work they do for our patients and their families every day. These individuals offer emotional support, counseling and assistance with benefit applications, living wills and advance health care directives to reduce the burden as individuals close one chapter and prepare to open another. Mahalo, social workers!  

March Community Connect:
Effective Communication Strategies

Thursday, March 23, 2023 at 10 AM HST via Zoom

According to the Alzheimer’s Association, 29,000 people ages 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s in Hawaii while 52,000 family caregivers bear its heavy burden. Join us for our March Community Connect where we will learn to decode verbal and behavioral messages and identify strategies to better connect and communicate with those in any stage of the disease. 

Charitable Gift Annuities
A gift that pays you back—now, even more than before!

Gift annuity rates increased in January, so if you have ever considered a gift annuity or already have an annuity, we can now offer you an even more generous annuity payment. If you defer the start of payments for a year or more, the rate increase is even greater. The combination of higher annuity rates and substantial deductions make gift annuities even more attractive if you are seeking to make a gift and receive fixed payments for life. Learn how this gift can benefit you and Navian Hawaii. Call us at (808) 924-9255 or email development@navianhawaii.org.
