Dine at Caviar Bar as They Help Raise Funds for Maui Residents Affected by Wildfire

Originally from Hawaii, Bartender/Mixologist, Rylen Komeiji, and Chef Michael Nguyen from Caviar Bar both show their support towards their home islands in response to the Maui wildfire that occurred earlier this month.

Businesses and individuals have shown their endless support to provide any kind of assistance to the residents of Lahaina, Maui who were directly affected by the wildfire. Las Vegas, commonly referred to as the “ninth island” of Hawaii, has had multiple businesses show support by being drop-off locations for supplies/necessities, holding fundraisers and more.

Caviar Bar Seafood & Restaurant, inside of Resorts World Las Vegas owned by Michelin-starred chef, Shaun Hergatt, will be offering an in-restaurant promotion during Labor Day weekend (Friday, September 1st through Monday, September 4th) in which a variety of limited-time cocktails and menu items will be available for purchase. 100% of these sales will be donated to Lahaina restaurant, Pacific’o on the Beach, which was one of the many buildings destroyed by the fires. Employees of Caviar Bar felt it was right to support another restaurant especially since Pacific’o’s employees have lost their homes and have children to take care of.

Pacific’o Fundraiser Organizer, Mari Howe, shares:

“This fundraiser is for the employees of Pacific’o to get back on their feet during this very difficult time. Like so many other local businesses in Lahaina, Pacific’o was destroyed during the fires. Many of our staff lost their livelihood, their homes, as did the rest of their family members. Many have children of their own. A lot of them do not know how to ask for help, and we are here to advocate for them.

100% of these proceeds will go directly to our displaced employees. The funds will be dispersed evenly to 46 employees. If the person feels their needs are met, they are free to pass it on to someone who is in need.

The reality that a majority of the Pacific’o Team are being housed at shelters and surviving off of donations, means that these donations are crucial to their rebuilding and being able to provide income and a home for themselves and potentially their families. And seeing as the whole community is displaced, everyone is sharing just to survive day to day.

The Pacific’o team is known for its infectious smiles, kindness, love for each other, passion for what we did and the islands, and incredible work ethic. They brought true aloha every day to work and to our guests, and we’d like to reciprocate their care.

We are so grateful for all the messages and calls from people who want to help. We can’t thank you enough for all the Aloha. Mahalo for your being a part of this incredible rallying of our community.”

Guests who order a “Kokua for Maui” cocktail, “Sherri Hi-Ball” cocktail, “Our Kuleana” Daiquiri and Hawaiian-inspired menu specials will be supporting Caviar Bar’s efforts to fundraise for Pacific’o employees from Lahaina.
