Get ready to shake, rattle, and roll—because this year’s HUGS gala is going retro with Rock-a-Hula for HUGS! Imagine an evening filled with vintage Hawaiʻi vibes, surf tunes, tiki flair, and plenty of aloha spirit—all in support of local families caring for a seriously ill child. We’d love for you to join us and help make this rockin’ night one to remember. Enjoy an evening of live entertainment, dinner, silent auction, drawings, and heartfelt stories that highlight the difference your support makes.
