Sentry Insurance announced an initial contribution of $275,000 for immediate relief and recovery in response to the wildfires in Lahaina, Hawaii and throughout Maui.
Stevens Point, Wisconsin-based Sentry sponsors the annual Sentry Tournament of Champions, a PGA Tour event played in Maui.
The Sentry Foundation is matching dollar-for-dollar donations by Sentry associates and retirees to the Maui United Way – Fire Disaster Relief Fund.
“During the six years Sentry has been sponsoring The Sentry (formerly Sentry Tournament of Champions) in Kapalua, we’ve invested our time in getting to know the island of Maui and its people on an intimate level,” said Pete McPartland, Sentry Insurance Chairman and CEO. “Sentry has come to embrace Maui as being a Sentry community, no differently than Stevens Point.”
Hawaii wildfires have killed at least 111 people and burned more than 2,000 homes and businesses.
