Gregory House Programs annual Kahu Mālama Award Dinner and Silent Auction is scheduled for Friday, November 8, 2024 at the Moana Surfrider. The Kahu Mālama Award recognizes an individual or entity that has demonstrated extraordinary contributions to Gregory House Programs or the HIV/AIDS community through advocacy, financial support or other means. This year the fundraiser will benefit housing and food needs for over 400 individuals. Gregory House Programs, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, is the only provider of HIV/AIDS housing services statewide, and provides case management and nutrition services on Oahu to over 400 people living with HIV and their families each year. Our programs help improve the quality of life and well-being for our community’s most vulnerable and economically challenged members and in the long run improve the public health of our community. Housing is especially essential for persons living with HIV/AIDS as it keeps the door open to continuous medical care and life-extending treatments. Your support of this event will help us provide essential housing and nutritional services to those most in need. Tickets for the Kahu Mālama Award Dinner & Silent Auction are available now; $135 in advance or $150 at the door.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Marcia Fudge visited with Gregory House Programs staff and program participants on Sunday, July 2, 2023 in upper Makiki at one of our transitional housing (TH) sites to learn more about the important services Gregory House Programs provides. Secretary Fudge was invited to visit Hawaii by U.S. Senator Brian Schatz. U.S. Senator Brian Schatz, Congresswoman Jill Tokuda, and Congressman Ed Case and several HUD officials joined Secretary Fudge on the visit. Gregory House Programs is the only Statewide HIV/AIDS housing agency in Hawaii, providing rental subsidies across the islands, and operates the only two transitional housing sites in Hawaii for people living with HIV (PLWH). Established in 1988, Gregory House Programs provides housing assistance, food and nutrition, and comprehensive case management services to more than 400 households each year. “Housing is healthcare,” stressed Jonathon Berliner, the Executive Director. “With housing and food security, persons living with HIV or AIDS can focus on accessing continuous medical care and HIV treatment, which are important in improving health outcomes and reducing new HIV infections.” U.S. Senator Brian Schatz, chairman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, secured a FY ’23 Congressional Earmark of $1.2 million for Gregory House Programs. This funding is earmarked for renovating Community Residential Programs, a transitional housing program that houses people living with HIV/AIDS who are transitioning out of homelessness. These funds are being administrated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Hawaii State Legislature, in its 2023 legislative session, approved a Grant-In-Aid (GIA) in the amount of $300,000 for of the Community Residential Program renovation project.
