In the aftermath of the devastating fires that have affected the Maui community, Bayer is stepping up to provide relief and support for recovery and rebuilding.
“We are grateful to be a part of the Maui community and are fully committed to providing support during this unprecedented time,” stated Alan Takemoto, government affairs lead, Bayer Hawaii, in a press release. “Our pledge is to help offer not only immediate relief but also to contribute to the sustained recovery and revitalization of Maui.”
Guided by its vision, ‘Health for All, Hunger for None,’ Bayer will contribute $500,000 to relief efforts on the island – a cash donation of $250,000 alongside a donation of essential healthcare products valued at $250,000.
This donation underscores Bayer’s dedication to addressing crucial needs of the community and the company’s Crop Science employees at our farms on Maui during this unimaginable time, company officials say.
The donation focuses on the key areas of supporting relief efforts, increasing access to food for those displaced and continuing to assess the needs of the community on an ongoing basis and contribute to local organizations as additional needs emerge.
Of the cash donation, $150,000 will be directed to the Hawaii Community Foundation’s Maui Strong program, which plays a vital role in coordinating resources for recovery efforts. An additional $50,000 will be contributed to the Maui Food Bank, supporting their mission to provide relief and distribute food through community partners to assist those in need, company officials say.
