The heart of Maui aches as wildfires consume its beauty, especially the cherished town of Lahaina.
HOW WE ARE HELPING
As countless survivors grapple with immeasurable loss, Tzu Chi volunteers from across the Pacific Islands Region are distributing emergency cash cards and serving as a beacon of hope amidst the chaos.
These cash cards, loaded with funds available for immediate use, give an individual or head of household the agency to cover their most pressing needs, whether it be temporary housing, medical expenses, food, water, clothing and shoes, gas, diapers/baby formula, and so much more. We’re also providing eco-blankets, food, and personal care supplies to help individuals make this time a bit more comfortable. And, together, we can do so much more.
