Twenty-three residents were honored today as 2026 Volunteer Heroes for their contributions to community nonprofit organizations, as Mayor Richard Bissen proclaimed Volunteer Week from April 19-25, 2026, in Maui County.
“This is a chance to recognize the incredible time, heart and talent our volunteers give to support nonprofits across Maui County,” Mayor Bissen said during a ceremony at the Kalana O Maui building in Wailuku. “These organizations are doing vital work every day – from providing food and shelter, protecting our watershed and natural resources, supporting youth and uplifting those in need.”
HandsOn Maui, the County of Maui Department of Human Concerns Volunteer Center, organizes the annual Volunteer Hero Celebration of Service event. Volunteers were nominated by nonprofits for volunteer work that has a significant impact. Volunteers received a certificate of recognition from the County.
“We are very pleased to recognize these compassionate, hardworking individuals,” said Wendy Stebbins, Volunteer Center coordinator. “Maui County is stronger and more connected because of these volunteers and the nonprofits they help serve.”
