A Classic Fundraiser For KUW: A Success for Kauai Community
Loren Kayfetz and Pat Pannell looked around Kauai a few years ago, and realized what a tremendous need there was for basic services to those in tough circumstances. Over the years, they had contributed to a number of music scholarship funds and non-profit concert groups here, only to find that just giving to a targeted group was not enough. Starting two years ago and continuing today, in addition to sponsoring a number of fund raising events for the Kauai United Way, they have pledged and paid 1/2 of all new client fees on Kauai to the KUW, which has totaled over $10,000 additional support in the last year alone. What Loren and Pat, with Personal Financial Consultants, want to do is make community involvement a win-win for everyone, and hope that they can set an example for other businesses and individuals on Kauai to follow. The basic services that KUW supports are not glamorous, but contribute to the very fabric of our community, and they want others to be inspired to step up and proactive. Their latest event for Kauai United way was called simply Classics….The United Way…….
Kauai United Way and Personal Financial threw their 2nd annual fundraising event featuring world-class classical music, while also contributing to the vital work of Kauai United Way and the agencies they support.
Guests were first invited to mingle with cocktails and decadent appetizers, while being serenaded by the Kauai Flute Quartet. Next they were ushered into a banquet room where Ron Wiley auctioned off one-of-a-kind trips to shows in New York City, the Symphony in San Francisco, the Philharmonic in Los Angeles, or a weekend getaway at the St. Regis. Loren Kayfetz, of Personal Financial, actually stood up during the bidding on the New York City trip and upgraded the flights to first class himself! Additionally one of the off-island trips was duplicated and awarded in a raffle drawing. Kauai United way was awarded $13,000.00 by Personal Financial at the end of the event. Kauai United Way is so grateful for the support of companies like Personal Financial; It is companies like these that make the world a better place for all of us.
