We are really proud to announce our community raised $1200 for Keiki Cupboard with the Great Napkin Doodle. The funds will furnish elementary school Lihikai in Kahului, which serves over 1000 kids, with a cupboard of supplies for the entire year.
The Pin Up Girlz event was a smashing success and we wanted to take this chance to pull together all the pics and videos that came from the party. Relive the glamour once again:
1. Sasha Prince captured some amazing moments of the models and cars here.
2. Here are some party snapshots of the contributors from artists to musicians, models and more.
3. With all the excitement happening, you may have missed the smoldering performance by Rachel Deboer backed by Cudra Clover.
4. Finally, Sara Tekula of Noni Films created this video of the event (shown below) and which offers some background on what an Island Girl Pin-Up transformation is all about.
