It's proof that every dollar helps, which is what the owners of a Draper shaved ice stand thought when they came up with their big idea to help Maui.
DRAPER — It's always a tough decision, especially with so many different options.
No matter how many flavors Jones offers at her shaved ice stand in Draper, though, Saturday was probably her easiest decision. Her shop is called Hokulia Shave Ice, and even though it's about 3,000 miles away from Maui, she felt closer to the people there than ever. So, Jones donated all her proceeds Saturday to the Red Cross to help those in Maui affected by the wildfires.
Kenison is from Orem and is one of the Utah Red Cross volunteers who just got to Maui in the past couple of days to start helping.
