<div><strong>We are currently fundraising in response to the devastating flooding from the March 2026 Kona Low Storms that impacted islands across Hawaiʻi. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters in the US, causing billions of dollars in damage each year and displacing thousands of families. Too often we see people create fundraisers on the GoFundMe platform asking for help in the wake of destructive floods.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>GoFundMe.org has launched this fund to provide direct and immediate support to those impacted by floods this year. Tax deductible donations will go to individuals and families impacted, and to the nonprofit organizations who are responding on the ground. Every dollar will go directly to the communities in need. Your support will help flood survivors begin to rebuild—stronger and together.
</div>

</div>
<div><strong>Current Need</strong>
</div>
<div>March 20, 2026 - The Hawaiʻi islands are facing the worst flooding they have seen in 20 years. Families have been displaced, homes damaged, and access to basic necessities disrupted across impacted communities. Heavy rains have overwhelmed infrastructure, leaving many residents without safe shelter, reliable transportation, or essential supplies. The situation remains urgent, with more than 5,500 residents ordered to evacuate, hundreds of rescues already taken place, and local responders working to assess an estimated $1B in damages.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>GoFundMe has generously donated $100,000 to kickstart the Hawaiʻi flood response so that grants can be issued in the first 24 hours to verified folks impacted and empower them to access their personal urgent relief needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Who we help</strong>
</div>
<div>We deliver cash grants directly to those impacted by floods in the United States, including all states and territories. We grant to verified individuals who qualify and are fundraising for themselves or on behalf of someone else. We may also provide grants to fundraisers benefiting small businesses and community relief efforts, and to vetted nonprofits coordinating long-term recovery. Grants are unrestricted, providing dignity and autonomy for grantees to meet their personal urgent relief needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why donate to this fund?</strong>
</div>
<div>We provide quick support (within hours and days) to individuals and communities who are directly impacted by a flood, supporting as many people as we can. Donations to this fund are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by U.S. law. We’ll send you a receipt upon donation completion.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Stay informed of our impact</strong>
</div>
<div>We’re deeply committed to operating with transparency and strive for maximum impact. We post regular updates to this fund about how donations have helped which are emailed directly to donors.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Thank you</strong>
</div>
<div>Thank you for supporting this critical relief fund. Every single donation is meaningful, no matter how small. Together, we can show up for people in times of crisis and let them know they are not alone.
