ThinkTech Hawaii, a nonprofit dedicated to providing a platform for civic engagement, presented the Hawaii Opera Theatre with a Community Contribution award on Thursday, December 8th, at ThinkTech Hawaii’s annual holiday party in Honolulu. HOT Board Vice President Evelyn Lance had the honor of receiving the award.
The award recognized HOT’s dedication and service to the ongoing welfare of the community by bringing the art of world-class opera to our audiences and schools and raising Hawaii’s quality of performing arts, life and public engagement.
Each of these organizations represents the best of our community by raising the quality of life in our islands,” said Jay Fidell, president and CEO of ThinkTech Hawaii, Inc. “When selecting these recipients, our goal was to identify change makers transforming the way we live and think.”
The award was also presented to four other community organizations, including the Institute for Human Services, Make ‘Em Smile, OC 16, and Pacific Forum CSIS.
