Michelle Zenith is fundraising
Lahaina help 2023!
Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit Maui United Way, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me. I am doing a 3.84 km Swim to raise funds asking for $45 flat rate ($20/mile) or any flat rate going Straight to Lahaina, Maui for relief! Sept. 4, 2023

111+ have lost their lives so far!:/our hearts go out!

My name is Michelle Zenith RN. I am a nurse on the mainland from Portland, Oregon.. I, as well as many of you, have grown to love the Hawaiian islands as a short escape for vacation and relaxation and beauty.. I frequent these islands and incorporated culture through hula here locally and many friends that live there!

Devastated and heart-wrenched by what I saw and heard of the cute, historic, lovely town of Lahaina Maui and the devastation brought on by those consuming fires.. left me feeling helpless

Sept 4. 2023 I was already gonna brace myself for the first time to do the rough water swim in Waikiki, Oahu.. 2.384 miles/3.84 Km.. now I’m turning this race/swim into a fundraiser with anything you can sponsor preferably $20/mile ( roughly $45 per person/family) I will finish a braver girl and hopefully turn my fears of open water swims( I have done some don’t worry;)), into something to help the Ohana( family) on the islands that we love, but especially Lahaina, Maui!

please join me in the effort!:) it’s the least we can do!! They are still looking for people and identifying bodies.. please pray and help

thank you!

the money will go to direct rescue and Lahaina local efforts in this crisis!

Michelle Galvin is fundraising
Maui Wildfire Relief
Writing this appeal is one of the hardest things I have had to do. I was born on Maui and both my parents, as well as their parents, were raised on the island. The pain of seeing my homeland in ruins is unbearable. Many of my cousins' friends are now without a home, job, or both. The road to recovery for Maui, especially its west side, will be long and arduous. Matt and I, along with our business partner, Pat McDonald, feel an enormous calling to help. Please join me as we come together in the spirit of ohana to support Maui as its people grapple with the aftermath of the country’s deadliest wildfire. Pagliacci Pizza is putting up $25,000 in matching funds for this fundraiser. Mahalo!

Join Hands for Maui: Rekindling Hope after the Wildfires

Hello, dear supporters! We are a group of high school students in Hawaii, and reaching out to you with a heartfelt appeal. Our beloved Maui has faced the wrath of wildfires, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. The lush landscapes we cherish have been scarred, and the communities we hold dear are in need of healing.

As someone who calls Maui home, this devastation hits close to the heart. That's why we've embarked on a mission to raise funds for the Maui Wildfire Relief. The "Hopeful Hearts Alliance" fundraiser is a call to action, an opportunity for all of us to stand together in unity and compassion.

Your generous contributions will make a tangible difference. The funds we raise will go directly towards aiding affected families, restoring the natural beauty of our island, and providing resources to rebuild the lives disrupted by this tragedy. Let's show the world the strength of our community and our unyielding spirit.

With your support, we can rekindle hope, rejuvenate our landscapes, and uplift the hearts of those who have been affected. Every donation, no matter the size, contributes to the larger picture of recovery and renewal.

Join us in this endeavor to heal, to rebuild, and to inspire. Let's demonstrate that even in the face of adversity, the people of Maui remain united, resilient, and full of hope.

Thank you for standing with us.

Warm regards,

Hopeful Hearts Alliance

Brian Ching is fundraising
Maui Fire Relief Efforts
As a former professional soccer player and native Hawaiian, I've found an incredible purpose beyond the field in giving back to the communities that I care about. In witnessing the unprecedented devastation to the Lahaina community, due to the recent Maui fires, I felt a deep responsibility to help. After reading through different relief initiatives I have chosen to support Maui United Way in their incredible efforts to help the local people. Through partner collaborations and a determined drive, I've been able to rally resources to offer aid to those dealing with their unimaginable losses.

Furthermore, my devotion extends to my family members who faced overwhelming loss. When my niece and her family tragically lost everything, I knew I needed to step in and offer not just support, but practical assistance as well. Thus this effort has a very personal connection to me. If you could help support in this time of need the community of Maui, my family and myself would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance for your support as it serves as a testament to the power of empathy, resilience, and genuine care in making a lasting impact on the lives of those around us and all those that have suffered.

Eli's friends and family fundraiser for Maui
Hi Friends and family! I'm Eli Billik, 7th grader at Wesley. My mom and I have a home in Maui. Our home is safe and we are out of harm's way, but we wanted to do something for our Maui community. We know many of you vacation on Maui and are looking for ways to help. I've created this fundraiser for Maui families and have chosen Maui United Way as an approved and effective charity delivering help and services to those displaced by the fires. I hope you'll consider helping me help the folks who have lost everything.
