Hawaii Chamber of Commerce Foundation

The Hawaii Chamber of Commerce Foundation is a Honolulu-based nonprofit dedicated to supporting local businesses and strengthening communities across the state. We work closely with Hawaii’s small business community and are directly connected to the Oahu North Shore small businesses impacted by the recent storms.

Through this relief fund, we are raising support on their behalf. These are small businesses that are not only recovering from significant damage themselves, but are also continuing to show up for their communities during this time of need.

Funds will be distributed as direct financial assistance to affected small businesses to help cover immediate recovery and operating expenses, including repairs, equipment replacement, payroll and other essential costs. This support will help stabilize their operations so they can continue serving their communities and contributing to the North Shore’s recovery.

Applications for the first round of funding close Wednesday, May 27 at noon. Oahu North Shore businesses affected by the Kona Low storms are still welcome to apply and will be added to a waitlist: https://www.cochawaii.org/programs/hawaii-chamber-of-commerce-foundation/

The Hawaii Chamber of Commerce Foundation/Chamber of Commerce Hawaii is raising funds to assist the businesses impacted by the wildfires on Maui, Hawaii Island and throughout the state of Hawaii. The fires tore through hundreds of acres on Hawaii Island and Maui, destroying businesses and homes. Historic Front Street in Lahaina, Maui, a major economic hub for the entire county, was engulfed.

This fund is dedicated to supporting the businesses and employees impacted by the fires. Funds will be collected through the Hawaii Chamber of Commerce Foundation, a 501(C)(3) organization, operating exclusively for Charitable, Literary, Educational and Scientific Purposes.

The priority now is safety and containing the fires. The losses and damages are hard to immediately calculate, but we know the road to recovery will be difficult. Our friends and ohana need our support now, especially in the rebuilding stage.

The Chamber of Commerce Hawaii stands by our partner, the Maui Chamber of Commerce, and is here to support impacted community residents and businesses with resources and assistance.

We also stand ready to assist Hawaii Island as well, and our partners, the Kona-Kohala and Hawaii Island Chambers, which also are facing brushfires.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of those impacted.
