Some evenings are about great food. Others are abo Some evenings are about great food. Others are about making a difference. At Chef Chai, we’ve always believed that food has the power to bring people together—but its greatest purpose is bringing people together for something bigger than ourselves. We’re honored to support Hoʻōla me ke Kahiau , alongside Hawaiʻi H.O.M.E. Project and the John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM), for an evening dedicated to healing, compassion, and hope. Every ticket helps provide medical, dental, and social services to our neighbors experiencing homelessness—offering not just care, but dignity, hope, and a path forward. For over 30 years, Chef Chai has been proud to be part of Hawaiʻi’s community. Supporting organizations that make a real difference isn’t something we do for recognition—it’s simply part of who we are. Giving back to the community that has supported us for so many years is one of the greatest privileges we have. We’re humbled to prepare dinner for this special evening alongside so many incredible people who believe that kindness and compassion can change lives. If you’re able, we hope you’ll join us—or simply help spread the word. Every ticket purchased, every donation made, and every act of generosity helps make a difference. Mahalo to Hawaiʻi H.O.M.E. Project, JABSOM, the volunteers, sponsors, and everyone working behind the scenes to make this evening possible. We’re grateful to play a small part. Because the strongest communities aren’t measured by what they achieve—but by how they care for one another. ❤️
