Mahalo!

Thank you for supporting our efforts to help our friend Toni Kaonohi. Our event was AWESOME! If you were there, you would have seen Toni sing and bring tears to our eyes. She was shinning that night and we're excited for her progress.
We were able to raise more than $10,000. The numbers aren't final and we're still hoping for more generous people to donate to Wells Fargo under the name Sister Sister. I'll be posting pictures and updates on the final numbers and also on Toni's progress. Merry Christmas!
