Please read the post below.  It has been reposted from the Lahaina Rotary Club website.  Please help if you can.
 
 
A relief fund has been established through the Rotary District 5000 Foundation as we come together to recover and rebuild. Please consider donating to this special fund and sharing the opportunity with others to help.
 
From Hawai'i Rotary District Governor Mark Merriam, August 9, 2023:
 
Today has been a tragic day for our Rotarians, families and friends on the Island of Maui. The fires across the island have changed lives forever. Truly devastating. Our sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with everyone impacted.
 
As people of action, we can take immediate action. As we come together to recover and rebuild, we need to support each other. We need to Create Hope for Maui.
 
Through our Rotary District 5000 Foundation, a relief fund has been established. Foundation President Dave Hamil and Treasurer Sharon Amano will handle all donations. A committee will be organized shortly to find the greatest needs for distribution of monies. A single fund will be the most helpful over time to provide the most significant benefits.
 
Please consider donating to this special fund.
 
 
Mahalo to the Rotary Club of Waikiki for collecting monies at their lunch meeting today. These are the first contributions to the fund.
 
Please also widely share this opportunity to help.
 
Stay safe, take care and mahalo for creating hope.
 
Mark Merriam, District Governor
