Viva la Cancer Research Center
The Friends of the Cancer Research Center of Hawai‘i hosted the annual Mauka Makai event on Friday, September 17, 2010, 6-11pm, at The Waterfront at Aloha Tower Marketplace. This year’s Mexican-themed evening took place in a fun “Mexican marketplace” where approximately 500 guests dined, danced and enjoyed a silent auction.
This year’s event honored Bert and Susan Kobayashi with the Mauka Makai Award for their leadership and continued philanthropic contributions to cancer research, treatment and education in Hawai‘i.
