Maui charity profiled
A Maui holiday charity project spearheaded by a guy who won't take "no" for an answer will be among six stories told in a Food Network special, "Christmas in America," airing at 8 p.m. Sunday (repeats Dec. 20, 21, 23, 25, check listings).
Nine years ago, Wailea resident Bob Douglas dug into his own pocket to help a needy family get a tree and Christmas dinner. His Christmas Cheer Project has since expanded to serve more than 85 families annually on Maui and Moloka'i. Information: Bob Douglas, (808) 875-1241 or write xmascheer@hawaii.rr.com.
