OUR MISSION
Both Sides Now is a Non-Profit Organization,
dedicated to the education and celebration
of gay lifestyles on Maui.
Both Sides now, Inc. has been incorporated
as a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization since 1981. A Board of Directors (BOD) oversees and manages the entity in elected
terms of no more than two years run concurrently. As required by law, a charter or bylaws have been written and amended as
the organization has grown, and changes and new ideas were introduced.
The purpose of Both Sides Now, Inc., is to promote cooperation, support mutual
representation, and educate the sexually diverse population of Maui and the State of Hawaii. As a community of primarily gays,
lesbians, bisexual and transgendered persons we form friendships and establish connections to perpetuate a loving form of
social interaction.
We
serve the community by maintaining a web site, sponsoring social events, raising funds for worthy causes, and working to educate
and support everyone in practicing safe sex. We seek to establish full social equality, legal rights, equivalent benefits
and privileges, and respect for all persons of sexual diversity. We seek to share our abundant Spirit of Aloha with all among
our Island Ohana.
