In addition to the donation and partnership in the Aloha for Maui campaign, the bank is also waiving ATM fees for individuals on Maui using First Hawaiian Bank ATMs. Fees from other banks may still apply.
“We are dedicated to easing the financial burden for the Maui community starting with this initial ATM fee waiver,” added Harrison, “And we’re committed to helping our customers facing financial hardships as they work to recover from this devastating event.”
