Aloha For Aloha a Big Success!

Aloha For Aloha Block party is a huge success.  The final tally has not been finalized but everyone involved is very optimistic about the whole experience.  Many thanks to all who came out to help, to all the sponsors, and especially to Don and Marion Murphy who were instrumental to setting up the whole thing.  Aloha for Aloha is humbled by all the support...  Thanks... 

For more information, Lokahi Giving Project has put out a Q & A to answer some questions.

ADP Self Service Portal

ADP, the company that handles Aloha Airlines payroll, is requesting that ALL Aloha

Airlines employees make sure that their mailing address and other personal information

 is accurate.  Log on to:  https://portal.adp.com/public/index.htm.  At the ADP Self Service

 Portal you can check and change your information in the "Myself" section.  

This is very important to get done as there will no "ALOHA" people to make corrections and

your W-2 will be sent to the last known address.  If you think you will move addresses

within the next year, it might be a good idea to input a relative's mailing address, so your

W-2 will go there... .  

FOOD DRIVE

The food drive was held on Monday and lots of food has picked up by our Aloha Airlines ohana...  If you need some assistance

or would like to get a "food basket" please call the office at 832-0260.  We would like to thank the AFL-CIO representatives,

Lynn Ching and Ron Tanaka, who worked so hard to get "food baskets" for our members.  Also a big mahalo to Mike Kajiwara

and Ken Ito from the food bank.

"When the Paycheck Stops"
An AFL-CIO Survival guide to Unemployment. 
Other companies may say they can help with your bills
(mortgage, car loans, credit cards etc..) but you end up paying for the services. 
If you cannot do what the guide recommends the AFL-CIO can do it for you. 
Their services will be paid by the credit companies, not you.
