Neighboring islands unite to help during Maui fires

The impact of the fast-moving, destructive wildfires on Maui has expanded to neighboring islands as Native Hawaiian organizations have begun raising funds to help support families that lost homes and businesses in and around Lahaina.

Closer to Lahaina, for those who have lost their homes in the unexpectedly ferocious, wind-fueled wildfires, Maui Disaster Response and Recovery Support offers a Google document to fill out for help. Anyone offering to help may fill out the form, also.

On Tuesday night, an unprecedented, relentless wildfire in the foothills of West Maui caught the 12,000 Lahaina residents off-guard, forcing many to flee as the fire ravaged homes, businesses and streets into unrecognizable swaths of destruction.
