Advertiser Staff

Tickets are still available for the fifth annual Ma'o Town fundraiser from 6 to 9 p.m. tomorrow at the Hawai'i State Art Museum.

The event benefits Wai'anae youth who want to attend college while learning about agriculture, sustainability and community development. It features food grown by Ma'o Organic Farms and prepared by Downtown chefs, live entertainment, and silent and live auctions.

Individual tickets are $125.

All proceeds from the fundraiser go to a scholarship fund for students enrolled in the two-year Youth Leadership Training College Internship Program at Ma'o. Most students are the first in their family to attend college and earn a degree.

To donate items or buy tickets, call 397-0960.
