Advertiser Staff and News Services

A Mililani teen with non-Hodgkins lymphoma asked the Make-a-Wish Foundation to help her create and market her own product. The result is Natalie's Nalu, a raspberry/guava vinaigrette manufactured in a one-batch quantity of 50,000 bottles by the Wish-Bone brand. Natalie Frazier's cancer is now in remission. Natalie's Nalu goes on sale at Foodland and Sack N Save today for $1, all of which which goes to the Make-a-Wish Foundation in Hawai'i.
