During the past 10 years, GAWDA members have generously given almost $1 million to needy organizations in the communities where the Annual Convention was being held. Numerous lives have been impacted and, in some instances, actually saved.

For 2010, GAWDA President Jenny McCall and her husband Chris selected Child and Family Service (CFS), Hawaii’s oldest and most established nonprofit organization, as the recipient of GAWDA Gives Back Donations. CFS’ mission focuses on strengthening families and fostering the healthy development of children. GAWDA will focus on Maui’s “Community Closet,” a program that provides support for newborn babies. A line of credit will be established through a local retailer for the purchase of baby supplies, such as diapers, wipes, formula, baby food, blankets and car seats.
