Our Green Gifts to Others

Over 10,000 soaps, lotions and other products are donated to local Maui schools, shelters and first-responders.

In a 2020 partnership with Clean the World, Grand Wailea recycles its soap and bathroom amenities as part of the #soapsaveslives movement, participating in wash programs that prevent diseases through handwashing to improve global health.
