Last weekend, I traveled to Maui to meet with our Team Members and inspect our properties. I’m relieved to share that all of our Maui Team Members are safe and accounted for. Unfortunately, 70 Team Members have lost their homes. While travel to West Maui is still uncertain, we will keep you updated when we’re once again able to welcome you home. I’m happy to share that Maui Bay Villas was not impacted by the wildfires and is welcoming arrivals. As we work to help care for our Maui ‘ohana, we wanted to say thank you for your heartfelt messages of concern for our Team Members impacted by the wildfires. Our immediate focus continues to be the safety and well-being of those impacted on West Maui, and we are working diligently to provide temporary housing to over 100 Team Members, first responders and community members. We are also supporting recovery efforts through donations to Aloha United Way and the Hawai’i Community Foundation’s Maui Strong Fund. From our local Team Members in Hawaii to Maui’s first responders and residents, the incredible generosity we’ve witnessed is truly a light in the dark. We’ve also set up a fund through the HGV Foundation to provide immediate cash grants to impacted Team Members. If you would like to donate, please visit my.hgv.com/maui-relief. All donations made through this link will go directly to support impacted Team Members on Maui. In addition, there are other ways you can help the Maui community by donating to one of the following organizations: Many of you have asked us if you can help by donating your points. We’re pleased to announce a new program that makes it easy for you to do so. As a Member of The Club, you can donate up to 3,000 of your The Club Points to support efforts in housing our Team Members in need and first responders. You can donate these points now through September 22, 2023, and Hilton Grand Vacations will match every point gifted.1 If you’re interested in donating your points to this effort, please contact your Club Services team at 877-374-2582. During times like these, one thing is clear: We are stronger together. From our family to yours, mahalo nui loa. ________________________ 1 Members in good standing may make a one-time gift of up to 3,000 points through September 22, 2023. Gifted points will be used to provide accommodations to HGV Team Members, as well as hospital workers and first responders impacted by the Maui wildfires of August 2023. Point contributions can be processed by phone. Eligible points include points saved from 2022, 2023 ClubPoints and Bonus Points. Points attributable to VIP, Sampler and Member Appreciation programs are not eligible. Members remain responsible for maintenance fees, Club Dues and monthly loan payments (for financed sales) associated with any gifted points. Once points are gifted by a Member, the transaction is final and the gift is irrevocable. All point donations are gifts made voluntarily to Hilton Grand Vacations, with no conditions. Each point gifted by a Member will be matched by Hilton Grand Vacations. If the demand for accommodations from HGV Team Members, medical personnel and first responders is less than the total number of gifted points, excess Member gifted points will be forfeited and will not be returned to the Member. No Tax Deduction. Hilton Grand Vacations is not an organization exempt from tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and there are no tax deductions available for the gift of points. ]]>
