After the devastating wildfires in Maui in August 2023, the 1547 team wanted to find a way to help the community recover. During a trip to Hawaii in October, a fishing excursion inspired the idea to combine our love of the ocean with a good cause. That’s how the Aloha Charity Fishing Tournament was born!
Following the success of our second tournament at PTC’25, we’re excited to host our 3rd Annual Aloha Charity Fishing Tournament: Fishing For Futures in 2026. Taking place on January 17th, 2026, this charity fishing tournament is all about fun, food, and fishing while making a meaningful impact on the community. All proceeds from the tournament will go directly to the Information Technology Sector Partnership through the Chamber of Commerce Hawaii.
