GARDENA — A buffet dinner and concert to raise funds to assist those affected by the Maui wildfires took place on Sept. 3 at the Gardena Valley Japanese Cultural Institute with about 300 people in attendance.

Featuring music by Elemental Funk, the sold-out event was co-presented by One Ohana Collective and GVJCI. The collective was created by Ted Kawasaki of The Loft Hawaiian Restaurant, restaurant friends and Elemental Funk to help the victims of the devastating fire. Close to 100 volunteers helped out.

“We are very grateful and blown away by the overwhelming support from all of the restaurants and the community coming together in such a short time to try and do something for the people of Lahaina,” said Elemental Funk lead singer Brian Yamamoto.

Helen Ota served as emcee. Opening prayer was delivered by Rev. Allison Mark of Faith United Methodist Church in Torrance. Dignitaries who expressed their support included Rep. Maxine Waters, Gardena Mayor Tasha Cerda and Torrance Mayor George Chen.
