Community Events

Helping the Community

Throughout the year, volunteers from Hawaiian Electric participate in various events in support of our community. This usually includes events like:

• Clean Energy Fairs on Oahu, Maui, and Hawaii Island to promote energy conservation and education for keiki
• Arbor Day tree giveaways
• Grow Hawaiian Festival at Bishop Museum
• Keiki Tilapia Tournament at Kaanapali Gof Course
• Honolulu City Lights Public Workers Electric Light Parade and various other Christmas parades
• Emergency preparedness fairs
• Heart Walk
• VEX Robotics Championships and Science bowls
• and much more

Our employees also organize workdays to preserve and protect the environment. This includes the removal of invasive plants and beach clean ups as well as the restoration of ancient heiau and agricultural sites.

Since early 2020 however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hawaiian Electric's in-person community service events have been paused and will resume when it is safe to do so.
