Schatz: Maui County Set To Receive Nearly $200,000 In Federal Funding To Provide Support Services To Seniors In Affordable Housing

WASHINGTON — Today, U.S. Senator Brian Schatz (D-Hawai‘i) announced that two affordable housing service providers in Maui County will receive $167,639 in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The funding was awarded to help make sure low-income seniors at HUD-assisted multifamily properties continue to receive health and wellness services.

“Everyone should have access to affordable housing and the care and resources to meet their needs,” said Senator Schatz, a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee. “This federal funding will ensure that older adults who need support can continue to live independently in quality, affordable housing with wrap-around services needed to stay healthy, safe, and fulfilled.”

The federal funding includes:

• $142,507 for Hale Mahaolu
• $25,132 for Hale Mahaolu Ekolu, Inc.
