We're honored to announce the People’s Fund of Maui, a fund putting money directly in the pockets of those who were affected by the recent wildfires.
As @Oprah and I have seen firsthand, the impacts of these wildfires have been devastating, and we’re here to ensure with 100% guarantee that your donations will go directly into the hands of Lahaina residents.
Every adult resident who lives in the affected area and was displaced by the wildfires in Lahaina and Kula is eligible to receive $1200 per month to help them through this period of recovery. All you have to do is go to https://t.co/qODWpVPZZ8 to apply.

Per @CountyofMaui: Several media members have been contacted and warned by law enforcement after going into affected area. Going forward, there will be zero tolerance for anyone who trespasses. The area is not safe & it is disrespectful for anyone to wander around w/out auth.
Not just for homeowners. Renters can also apply. Anyone who has lost their homes in the Maui Fires: go to OHA 737 Main St Wailuku and they will give you a $5000 Airbnb voucher.

This incredible Maui rescue story…
Lahaina resident Jubee Bedoya was trying to escape the incredibly fast moving fire by making a desperate run for the ocean when he encountered a family of five from California. The father handed him his two year-old son, and they waited into the water together.
The child is seen clinging to Bedoya’s neck as the group held onto a piece of floating wood. Bedoya said they were in the water for 2 to 3 hours. They were among 17 people rescued by the Coast Guard.

As touristy as #Lahaina had become, it was still a place where real people lived including generations of families who had deep roots in that red soil. #HInews#MauiFires https://t.co/knQ5DL9qsN
