Pukalani Terrace Center to host back-to-school drive
Pukalani Terrace Center will host its Fifth Annual Back-to-School Drive from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. July 18 in partnership with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Maui.
The community event will collect and distribute school supplies for Upcountry students preparing for the 2026-27 school year. The event will include live entertainment, keiki activities, a live radio broadcast and giveaways throughout the day. Prizes include an overnight stay at the Maui Coast Hotel, Kula Country Farms gift certificates and a $75 Fabianis gift card.
Families may pre-register through July 14 for a chance to receive a free backpack filled with school supplies. One backpack will be awarded to a randomly selected winner in each grade level from kindergarten through eighth grade. Registration is available at pukalanicenter.com/current.
Community members are encouraged to bring school supply donations to the event to benefit the Boys & Girls Club Makawao. Cash donations also will be accepted. Donations may be dropped off before the event at collection bins at Ace Hardware, Kalei’s Lunchbox and the Bank of Hawaii Pukalani Branch.
A school supplies list is available at pukalanicenter.com.
