Support the Aly Family - MAUI FIRE
Donation protected
8/8/23
As you may already know Lahaina has been destroyed. My sister, niece and brother-in-law have lost their home and have little to no resources at this time. However, they do all have each other, along with their beloved pets. We are currently asking for support to help them take a plan of action for next steps, as well as rebuilding a foundation to plant their feet once the dust settles.
My Sister and Silver are two of the most loving human beings, they are true pioneers and extremely brave. They recently opened up their business of Kealani’s Juice Co. and poured all of their hard work investing into their dream. We are saddened that just as they started this new journey it is all being ripped from beneath them.
Any donation, large or small, is going towards an amazing cause and an incredible family. We thank you for your support and help during these troubled times. Please keep the Aly Family in your prayers . We will continue to keep you updated, as we still have limited contact with them.
Thank you
Lauren Barriga
Update 8/12/23
Essentials, clothing, shoes, supplies and dry foods etc have been shipped via DHX and will be arriving in a week.
My sister and family are so grateful for all of the support , prays and donations. I spoke with my sister yesterday and she said there is now power in Napili. We are not certain of their next move or plan at this time. But we know they are together, safe, and being loved by the community and helped by those around them.
You all have turned a horrific event into something that may shed some light for hope again. I’m so blessed to see how everyone has come together to rally behind my sister, niece and brother in law and continue to do so. You all are beautiful human beings. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you all have donated to help them get on their feet !
With much love and kindness

Updates from Piper and Isaiah (Silver and Nicole’s other two children)
8/21/23 Update from Nicole/Silver:
Words aren’t enough to tell you all thank you for the donations you have made. We have a long road ahead but your support has given us a pathway to new beginnings.
We were denied FEMA due to being homeowners. Currently, we are trying to navigate through each day to figure out what to do for work. “Kealani’s Juice Co” is currently not operating due to the aftermath of the Maui Fire.
Since Kealani’s school was burned down, we are trying to find her placement in a new school, as well as trying to find permanent housing for us. We love you all so much and so grateful for everyone helping lift us up during this dramatic time.
