Steele Emergency Lava Relief Fund
Donation protected
At the beginning of June we lost our Kapoho home and its contents as a result of the current volcano eruption and lava flow. We are devastated.
It is hard to ask for help but we need to since we have lost everything. We were soon soon to be retiring. We've always been very cautious with our spending and have lived simply. We never imagined the lava would be so fast moving and are financially unprepared for our upcoming expenses. We thought we would have more time… My husband has lost his income since all of his gardening accounts were in the area of Kapoho and almost all the homes in the neighborhood are gone now. My internet flower business is still up and running but that only provided 1/4 of our income.
Anything you can do to help us, including sharing this link with others would be greatly appreciated and will give us the time to get back on our feet, find new sources of income and set up our rental home, which is now empty save for a mattress on the floor.
