Caregiver Foundation's Starlight Fancies 2025 Aims to Support Hawai'i's Vulnerable Populations Through Community Celebration

The Caregiver Foundation (TCF) will host its annual fundraising event, Starlight Fancies 2025, on November 1, 2025, at the Generations Ballroom in the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai'i. This community event represents more than just a fundraiser—it serves as a vital celebration of caregivers' essential contributions to Hawai'i's communities while generating crucial support for caregiving services that enhance the lives of Kupuna (elders), individuals with disabilities, and their families across the islands.

Gary Powell, Founder and Executive Director of TCF, emphasized the event's significance, stating, "Our goal is to make life less stressful and more dignified for those we serve. We are honored to work with our clients and their families to promote community, support and hope." The event provides a community-centric platform to connect, celebrate, and support programs that empower caregivers while fostering dignity and independence among vulnerable populations throughout Hawai'i.

The importance of this fundraising effort extends beyond the single evening event. Funds raised at Starlight Fancies 2025 will directly benefit TCF's comprehensive programs, including the Youth Caregiver Support Program, Ohana Health CNA Scholarship Program, Virtual Support Groups, and additional initiatives designed to support caregiving needs and promote community well-being. These programs ensure continued access to essential services for Hawai'i's most vulnerable residents and their caregivers, addressing critical needs that might otherwise go unmet.

The evening event, running from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., offers attendees an opportunity to participate in this inspiring community gathering while enjoying delicious local cuisine provided by Bamboo Catering, a silent auction featuring antiques, collectibles, and experiential prizes, and live local musical performances by Brickwood and Friends thanks to entertainment sponsor Kupuna Power. Community members interested in attending can find tickets and additional information on the Starlight Fancies 2025 Event Page at https://www.thecaregiverfoundation.org/starlight-fancies-2025.

The foundation emphasizes the collective effort required to make a meaningful difference in the lives of caregivers and those they serve. The organization's work supports Hawai'i's Kupuna, adults with disabilities, and their caregivers through programs and resources that promote dignity, independence, and community engagement, demonstrating how charitable events like Starlight Fancies create tangible impacts for vulnerable populations across the islands.
