Kathryn Smirke Ohanas Lahaina Wildfire Relief Fund

Donation protected
Aloha, I’am Shalice and my sister Kathryn Smirke and her Ohana lost her home in the Lahaina Wildfire 8/08/2023. As you can imagine she and her ohana are absolutely devastated. Kat is so appreciative and has asked me to extend her gratitude for all the prayers, love and support ❤️ (she is safe and still on the west side where there is no electricity or cell service). Many of you have asked about how to help so I decided to create this gofundme for her.

They were evacuated from their home and only able to find one of their cats, Kiko. They left with the clothes on their backs and their vehicles. We are still on the search for their other cat, Baby. Thankfully they were able to escape the chaos and made it out safely. Their greatest need right now is basic things like clothing, toiletries, food, gas, etc.

They may of lost everything but they are healthy and safe and we thank God for this,   but reality is they will need to rebuild their lives. Kat also lost her business, Pomaika'i Therapeutic Massage. She ran her business out of her home. She is a 5 star massage therapist who loves her clients and brings much healing to them. She’s an amazing mom to her 2 children, Mahina (9) and Aharon (18). George is an amazing dad, well known and loved on the island and grew up in Lahaina. Together as a family with God, they will start a new chapter.

We are very grateful if you feel led to make a donation. All donations will go directly to her and will be used for clothing, hygiene products, food, shelter, gas and whatever else they may need ❤️ We know God is good even in times like this and trust He will provide.

Mahalo again for your prayers, messages, texts and phone calls of support over the last couple of days. I really have the best of friends and family…thank you all my beautiful prayer warriors, I love you all!! ❤️❤️ #LahainaStrong #MauiStrong
