Senior care<br />

First Hawaiian Bank Foundation President, Sharon Brown, visits with seniors at The Salvation Army Adult Day Health Services.<br />

family services<br />

“Being a business owner, I didn’t think that I would be in the position to need anyone’s help.<br />

I prided myself on being able to take care of my boys and paying our bills.” - Isabella G.<br />

46-year-old Isabella G. is a single mother of two boys. They live<br />

in a small apartment in Waialua, where Isabella runs her own<br />

cleaning business for homes on the North Shore. Just a year ago,<br />

she injured her back and her doctor ordered her to rest. “I fell<br />

behind on my bills and we became homeless for two months,”<br />

says Isabella. She contacted The Salvation Army Family Services<br />

Office and was able to receive rental assistance, food, and a<br />

connection to resources. “I’m so thankful. The Salvation Army is<br />

a blessing to single moms like me.”<br />

caring for our kūpuna<br />

“We saw the need to address special concerns of the elderly and we wanted to enhance the<br />

quality of their time at ADHS.” - sharon brown, President, first hawaiian bank foundation<br />

Hawai‘i’s growing senior population deserves special attention<br />

and community partners like First Hawaiian Bank are passionate<br />

about serving Hawai‘i’s kūpuna through The Salvation Army<br />

wellness programs like the Adult Day Health Services (ADHS).<br />

Located adjacent to downtown Honolulu, ADHS serves more<br />

than 60 seniors in need of care during the day while their loved<br />

ones are at work. The center provides daily supervision through<br />

affordable services, socialization, nursing and therapeutic services,<br />
