Final update. Having exceeded our original goal and reopening to donors twice, we will officially end this GoFundMe campaign. Mahalo nui to all the generous donors and to Sharon and her team on Maui who are reaching out to help those in need. May all who have experience great loss find comfort from the many supporters and international family who are sending their love and healing energy along with their donations. Imua Maui. Maui Strong.

We are fundraising for our Hula and paddling ‘ohana on Maui. Sharon will distribute to the families that have lost their homes in Lahaina and elsewhere on Maui due to this tragic event.

Thanks to the generosity of our many supporters worldwide, we have been able to increase our goal once again. All recipients of our aid are so very grateful. We are continuing fundraising for our Ka’Imi Na’auao O Hawai’i Nei Institute and Lae’ula O Kai ‘ohana on Maui. Sharon Balidoy our Kumu Hula and Paddling club coach will distribute funds to the families that have lost their homes in Lahaina and elsewhere on Maui due to the tragic fires. Your kokua will help them get through the next weeks and months. The funds are being used for essential items for our members who need clothes, shoes, everything. Other members of our organization are providing homes to many who have lost their homes. Funds are being distributed to them for food, bedding, etc. Sharon and the other hula students are assisting with the distribution.
