Lahaina Fire Response Aug 8, 2023
Emergency Alert! Thousands of families on Maui have been forcibly evacuated from their homes due to the devastating fires. We’re on a mission to sustain the health of survivors and provide immediate relief.
Join our critical fundraising effort to amass essential resources: fresh food, water, clothing, and more. Our goal is to supply daily, hot, and nutritious meals to hundreds. We’re also assembling CSA boxes brimming with grains and produce, plus crucial items like toiletries. Urgently required temporary shelter will be set up too.
Our island is in crisis, and time is of the essence. Your support is a lifeline for those struggling in the aftermath of this disaster. Every contribution counts and will make a direct impact on our community’s heart, soul and survival.
Act now and thank you in advance for your heartfelt generosity!
Mahalo and Aloha, from our island home and its resilient people.

***UPDATE***
We are currently establishing multiple kitchens on the west (Lahaina) side of the island to starting cooking!!! We are using these funds to buy thousands of pounds worth of produce per week from local farms, wholesale direct. We have decided this is the most sustainable, long-term solution for providing fresh, healthy, hot meals to people on the Lahaina side of the island. This keeps the local farms in business so they can continue to grow food for the people of Maui moving forward, they are the back-bone of our community! We have been providing services to those in need on Maui for over 3 years and are grateful for the connections we have made along the way to bring this all to life. We feel this is the best way to continue to support both the farms (who have been donating food to us for years) and the residents who have been impacted by these fires.
We are also still cooking 300+ meals a day out of our usual kitchen at Anuhea Chapel and delivering to those who are living in their vehicles and/or on the streets all over the rest of the Island.
We are beyond grateful for your immense generosity and aware that this is going to be a marathon, not a sprint. Establishing solid foundations for the long term is our focus, so please continue to donate and to share this link so that we can continue to be of service to our ohana!
