Alison Johnson - Lost Everything in Maui Fires

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Mack. I’m helping raise money for Alison Johnson. She is a dear friend of my wife and me along with many friends of ours. She recently lost everything in the Maui Fires. She lived in Lahaina which is now completely lost due to the fires. Alison is a fighter and will bounce back from this, but can use your help if you can assist.

She is an expert kayaking instructor and guide. Currently, she is safe and staying with friends, but we are trying to help her find a new place of her own. With all of our help, she can do that.

A note from Alison:
“This is Alison. Thanx 4 helping me. This is the only photo I have with me in it(she is on the left in the group photo).

I've lived in Lahaina for 13 years. I live at the bottom of the hill where the fire began. It filled so fast, all neighborhood roads lead to only 1 that exits. I couldn't get my car out. I ran out my back gate to my friend's house on the other side of town. We had about an hour til the flames jumped the highway and evacuated her house. We had to sleep in her car for 2 nights because we couldn't go to a shelter without a cat carrier for her cat.

All the hotels were full. The hotel I worked at the first 9 yrs let us in a room to finally shower. We finally got in touch with a friend in Makawao yesterday and got some rest... “

The funds will be sent to Alison when this is completed. She will use them to help with a down payment on a new place, possibly a car for work, and anything she needs to rebuild her life.
