Dr. Charles Sanders is director of Christian Works Hawaii a non-profit organization with a sincere desire to help Veterans in need and too often forgotten by mainstream society and the bureaucratic system. Dr. Sanders is a remarkable man and we are grateful for his life’s work to help others . He is consistently involved with community leaders to ensure our Veterans have the help they need. It is important to note that he also assists non-veterans in filing social security claims. On Sundays, Dr. Sanders can be found at the Farmers Market in Makuu.
Born in Kentucky, he now lives in Hawaii with his family. Once a tenth grade dropout and candidate for juvenile detention, today he is a Ph.D and a DCC in counseling and communications, as well as a D.Th (doctor of theology). Before Dr. Sanders was called to the ministry he served for 17 years in the Marine Corps, including three tours of Vietnam; he returned to the States with substantial wounds.
Today, Dr. Sanders has been ordained not just as a minister but as a bishop in his church, and additionally is involved with the Disabled American Veterans, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and the Military Order of the Purple Heart.
He asked us to help spread the word to our island Veterans that they are NOT forgotten and for everyone to remember and honor the services of our military, always. Contact Dr. Sanders here. Suggested reading are two of Dr. Sanders books – titled “Making of a Minister” and “Psychology vs. Christianity“.
Dr. Sanders can also be found at the Farmers Market in Makuu.

Well I kinda seen things form up for Chuck here in Keaau, and I’ll tell ya he’ is getting work done, and the kinda work that no one else in the area has even attempted to do. I have always been an advocate of the American Veteran and have had many many WWII veterans as friends and mentors and always reached out a hand and my heart to them, and they to me, including many veteran menbers of the American/japanese intellegence corps from WWII. Who as we know, fought against the Japanese most bravely and friecely and at the same time had there families, here in the USA., put in concentratrion camps! They gave it all for this country and were always loyal, and remain loyal to this very day. Bless them!….And you ! know Dr Chuck Sanders is the same way. His loyalty and never ending assisstance to his country and fellows is comprable to that which I have witnessed in my dear Japanese/American friends. And I am eternally grateful to Dr.C.E Sanders USMC. and them. May God hold their hearts on high and give all eternal peace. Amen !
I wish to express my sincerest Thnks to all those wha have reached out and supported my efforts to assist other. Times are getting hard, and I know it is so for all of us, but even one dollar will help towards keeping me helping others. Remember we are a 501 c 3 non-profit and all gifts/donations are tax exempt. I need to ask you to reach deep in your pockets and help us continue to help others! Those of you that do not know how to make donations or reach me, you can reach me through really hawaiian .com or PO Box 1437, Kurtistown, Hawaii 96760 or at the Hilo Farmers market on Saturday, or Makuu Farmers market on Sundays, I pray this will touch your hearts and inspire you to write out that check!
Love and Appreciation to All and may God as know Bless You in a mighty way!
Please give help so deserving to Dr, Sanders for all the help he has done for those in need.
Thank you,
Carol Dobbs
Mahalo Chuck,
Our case finally went to hearing and we hopefully are waiting for good news. We wouldn’t have gotten this far with out you. Blessing are coming.
My e-mail commander Perry is that because I was American Legion Commander for two years on the Island of Maui. Later I decided to leave Maui and live on the big Island of Hawaii. After being on the big Island for some time I met my good friend Dr. Chuck Sanders . I have never met anyone so helpful and caring as Dr. Sanders. I hope and pray that he can continue to help all the veterans that need his help for many-many years to come.
Chuck,
Thanks again for all your help and support. Good to see this page and I hope it leads more veterans to you.
Bishop Dr. Chuck Sanders is always there for those in need and I hope those who are able can help support his worthy cause.
Chuck has been magnificent in helping us get our VA benefits in order. Many, many thanks go to Chuck.
Aloha My Dear Friend Chuck,
I’m so glad you have found a new way to get out the word about the services you provide to veterans in your community. What you did for me in navigating the VA system is so appreciated by me and my family. I would also like to encourage any family members of veterans of any wartime era including today to seek out Dr. Sanders’ help about any and all benefits available to your loved one from the VA and Social Security. He is the man to see, guaranteed. Thanks,again Brother.
With love always,
Ray and Sophia

No one can keep a good man down . pretty bad when we try our best to help a person and they turn out to be the enemy ! Chuck is a great man , a REAL Hero , nothing Fake about him . I hope Dr. Sanders gets the much needed donations to keep his help flowing . GOD BLESS ..

When I went to Dr. Sanders after being turned down by so many people, I was just looking for a little help. Dr. Sanders doesn’t know the word no. He restored my faith in people and showed me that some one cares. He has been so helpful to me and my family and resatored my faith in my fellow man. Hey guys this man has given so much to others lets get behind him so he can help more needy vets. I thank god for this man of GOD, guys you know how many guys out there that really need Dr Sanders. Lets get behind him so he can do the lords work for many dserving vets.

Dr. Chuck has been a great help/reference to not only my father, but also to me. My father and I are both disabled vets. Having a person like Dr. Sanders has been paramount to our successful integration and understanding of how to cope with the physical and mental wounds that vets like us have had to endure.
Dr. Chuck willingly donates his time and efforts to help those struggling to adjust and/or cope with the bi-products that come from serving this great country of ours. If you are a vet and feel as if you are not receiving the answers or the solace that you deserve, please DO NOT hesitate in contacting Dr. Sanders.
Rock Steady, Dr. Sanders. Keep on fighting the Good Fight!!

Keep up the great work! You are reaching people that the system has given up on and you are making a difference. May God bless you in all you do
Come on people lets help the man that helps man. We all need help but some of us have no one to go to. I for one really am grateful and honored to know Dr. Chuck Sanders !!!!!
We learned real quick that there’s no atheists in foxholes. Seems a shame so many left the Lord thre. God knows they’ll need His help in dealing with the VA. Keep ‘em flyin’ brother Chuck!
I ask that those who can, please help Chuck help those who need it. He is a good man, a warrior, and one who has been down himself on a few occasions. He’s been there and knows your pain.
I can tell you these things because we are family. He will do what he can to help you. Please…… go see him or call him!
Love you, Chuck!…….. Sam
