UPDATE: Our first round of grants are closed. We are confident that there will be another round of grants awarded. If you would like us to send you the application please submit your name, phone number and email below. Thank you!
We are aware of the fact that there are a number of high-needs that are falling through the cracks. We understand that there are deadlines that have pass for Red Cross and the "Maui People's Fund" and that those deadlines happened before many people were able to replace their documents and identification which was needed to qualify.
In listening to the barriers for people who were unable to meet those deadlines, we have created a fund aimed to lift those who may be falling through the cracks in the system. This is a fund for those in Lahaina and Kula who lost their homes or lost loved ones in the fire.
We will prioritize highest needs multi-generational homes, kūpuna (elderly), those with young children, those with health challenges and those unable to apply for FEMA.
Our donors will read each of your stories and decide based on the information you share how much will be awarded, so it is helpful to share as much information as you feel comfortable sharing so that we can best understand your needs and how we can help you best. I know there are a lot of applications and an overwhelming amount of information to get through but we want you to know that we are here for you and we will ensure that no one falls through the cracks.
