First Wave: Without wasting a minute the Chairman Frank VanderSloot, CEO Jerry Felton and President Cole Clinger sprang into action, making a series of decisions that created a multi-pronged approach to this relief effort. So far Frank VanderSloot has donated more than $135,000 in cash, food and relief supplies, and they have plans to donate hundreds of thousands of dollars more over the coming days to Maui’s recovery.
Because of their urgency, Frank’s company was one of the first to arrive on Maui with assistance. Within 24 hours more than $25,000 in personal hygiene kits and healthy snack foods was donated to those running temporary shelters.
To accomplish this so quickly, Frank chartered a private cargo plane to fly from his Oahu warehouse to the Maui airport.
“In the midst of turmoil Franks company came to our rescue by delivering food and grooming products for those staying in our emergency shelters,” said Paul McDonald, who led a shelter in Kahului housing hundreds of people. “Both the speed and quality of Franks donation was a breath of fresh air, offering hope and a reminder that we’re not alone. We appreciate their compassion to our crisis.”
A few days later, the American Red Cross specifically called to ask Franks company for healthy snack bars as their Maui warehouse inventory was running low. We were happy to air ship 6,500 Simply Fit, Attain and Proflex protein bars at the exact time and place that the Maui Red Cross needed it.
After receiving a shipment of donated products, Marketing Executives in Maui assembled and gave away care packages to families in need.
Additionally, the company bought 16 generators in Kauai and flew them to Maui. These generators were distributed to families who can remain in their homes near Lahaina but who don’t have power or water.

Frank’s Director of Aloha Jeff Putman, who resides in Kauai, has made two trips to Maui so far. During his first trip, Jeff visited several shelters to assess the immediate needs of the people, and on his second trip he drove to wherever families were staying to personally distribute products and these cash envelopes.

Feeding Those Who Lost Everything in Maui Wildfires
To feed the people after the wildfires in Maui destroyed the historic town of Lahaina, Frank donated 5,000 pounds of beef from the meat processing plant that he owns in Oahu. And he’s committed an additional 15,000 pounds of beef to help those in need. Frank’s personal donation will exceed $240,000.
His company, Hawaii Sustainable Beef, is working extensively with Chef Hui, a collaborative of chefs, farmers and co-producers from across Hawaii, as well as Maui Rapid Response, a group of nonprofit and government agencies that come together during natural disasters. Since the horrific disaster, a volunteer army has prepared tens of thousands of meals for families in need.
Frank’s first critical donation is now being shipped on a large barge from Oahu to Maui. After it is cooked by dozens of local chefs and volunteers at the University of Hawaii Maui College Culinary Arts facility, it will nourish the people of Maui through distribution in a network of food trucks, soup kitchens and American Red Cross/Salvation Army shelters.
Frank’s first donation is estimated to provide enough protein to feed thousands of people for an entire week.
And his second shipment of beef should be sufficient to feed the community for several weeks!
A Second Wave of Relief Is Coming
Frank’s company set up a hotline for customers to donate to Maui relief several days ago. At the time of this post on August 18, 2023, Frank’s customers have donated $43,390 to this specific fund within the Foundation. Frank’s company has pledged to double their total donations, bringing the total donations to $86,780.
There are no administrative charges, so 100 percent of all donations to this particular fund will go to helping the people of Maui.
