Plexus Worldwide, a leading direct-selling health and wellness company, has rallied hundreds of its Brand Ambassadors to participate in a volunteer effort with the Maui Food Bank, the primary hunger relief organization in Maui County.

Filling Backpacks, Feeding Futures
Plexus volunteers have filled over 700 backpacks with school supplies for local children as part of the Maui Food Bank's Aloha Backpack Buddies program. This initiative aims to combat food insecurity for students and families by providing essential meals during the school year. With one in four children and one in three households in Maui facing food insecurity, this work has become more critical than ever."By filling these backpacks, we're doing more than providing meals – we're offering hope and stability to the families we serve," said Alec Clark, Co-Founder and President of Plexus Worldwide. "It's heartbreaking to know that so many children go to bed hungry, and we're committed to making a difference in their lives."Stepping Up in Times of Crisis
Plexus' philanthropic mission extends beyond the Aloha Backpack Buddies program. Last year, the company stepped up with donations totaling $30,000 to organizations like the American Red Cross, Feeding America, and the Maui Food Bank to aid in the recovery efforts following the devastating wildfires that scorched thousands of homes and businesses on Maui."We are proud to continue supporting Maui through our ongoing volunteer efforts and financial contributions, helping families recover and rebuild," said Elizabeth Woods, Director of Philanthropy at Plexus Worldwide. "As a company, we believe in giving back and making a lasting impact where it's needed most."Strengthening Communities, One Backpack at a Time

By mobilizing its Brand Ambassadors to volunteer and contribute, Plexus is not only addressing immediate needs but also fostering a sense of community and empowerment."Our partnership with the Maui Food Bank reflects Plexus' ongoing commitment to communities in need," said Alec Clark. "We're not just providing material support; we're investing in the long-term well-being of the families we serve, helping them build a brighter future."As Plexus continues to expand its reach and impact, the company remains steadfast in its mission to make a positive difference in the lives of those it serves.
