The Caregiver Foundation Announces Starlight Fancies 2025 Gala to Support Hawai'i Caregivers

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. The event aims to generate support for vital caregiving services that enhance the lives of Kupuna (elders), individuals with disabilities and their families across Hawai'i. This community gathering represents a significant opportunity to address the growing needs of vulnerable populations while celebrating the essential work of caregivers throughout the islands.

Gary Powell, Founder and Executive Director of TCF, emphasized the importance of the event, stating that their goal is to make life less stressful and more dignified for those they serve. The foundation works closely with clients and their families to promote community, support and hope through various programs designed to meet caregiving needs and promote community well-being. The funds raised at Starlight Fancies 2025 will directly benefit these essential programs, ensuring continued access to critical services for those who need them most.

Attendees will enjoy delicious local cuisine provided by Bamboo Catering and a silent auction featuring antiques, collectibles and experiential prizes. Live local musical performances by Brickwood and Friends, made possible by entertainment sponsor Kupuna Power, will provide entertainment throughout the evening. The event offers a community-centric platform to connect, celebrate and support programs that empower caregivers and foster dignity and independence among vulnerable populations.

TCF's programs include the Youth Caregiver Support Program, Ohana Health CNA Scholarship Program, Virtual Support Groups and additional initiatives designed to support caregiving needs. These programs address critical gaps in caregiving resources throughout Hawai'i, providing education, support services and advocacy to improve quality of life for all residents. The foundation describes the event as more than a fundraiser; it's a celebration of caregivers' vital contributions to Hawai'i's communities and an opportunity to recognize their often-overlooked work.

The impact of this fundraising effort extends beyond the immediate event, supporting long-term sustainability for caregiving services across the state. As Hawai'i's population continues to age and the need for caregiving services grows, events like Starlight Fancies 2025 play a crucial role in maintaining essential support systems. The collective effort to make a difference through community participation helps ensure that vulnerable populations receive the dignity, independence and quality care they deserve while supporting the caregivers who dedicate their lives to this important work.
