HMoW is one of many Hawaii nonprofits that FICOH supported in 2018 through donations and community service.
HONOLULU – In 2018, First Insurance Company of Hawaiiʻs (FICOH) charitable donations totaled a record $882,000, exceeding 2017 donations by more than 25 percent and benefiting more than 100 local nonprofit organizations and projects.
Among the organizations that received financial donations in 2018 were the American Red Cross, American Diabetes Association, American Heart Association, Aloha United Way, Big Brothers Big Sisters, the Chamber of Commerce, Easter Seals, the Hawaii Foodbank, Hawaii Public Radio, Honolulu Museum of Art, Make-A-Wish Hawaii, the University of Hawaii Foundation and The Queenʻs Medical Center.
Augmenting these charitable contributions were the more than 2,000 hours FICOH associates volunteered in the community in 2018, including for Hawaii Meals on Wheels, American Red Cross of Hawaii, Lunalilo Home, Sustainable Coastlines, the Institute for Human Services, and Special Olympics Hawaii.
“From the beginning, First Insurance associates have recognized their responsibility to Hawaii,’” said Jeff Shonka, FICOH President and CEO. “One way we strive to fulfill this responsibility is through our support of Hawaii’s nonprofits, which is why we are so pleased to be able to increase the size and impact of our charitable giving starting in 2018 and going forward.”
