Disaster Aid for Mauian Hotel Employees

The Mauian Hotel is a small beachfront property on Napili Bay in West Maui. Our hearts are broken as our island community is reeling from the catastrophic fire in the town of Lahaina -- the heart of West Maui. Our hotel is located a few miles north of Lahaina, and we are thankful it was not touched by the catastrophic fire. However, some of our employees have suffered terrible personal hardship. Two lost their homes and all belongings. Everything they owned. Another lost clothing and personal items to the fire. And others have family members they are now assisting through this disaster. Thankfully, none of our employees lost their lives.

We have heard from many past Mauian guests asking how they might help. Your kindness warms our hearts during this agonizing time. We have created the Mauian Employee Disaster Aid Fund (MEDAF) for this purpose. All donations to this fund will be used to assist those Mauian employees who have been directly impacted by this fire.

Donations are not tax deductible, but they are greatly needed and so appreciated. Every contribution, large or small, helps meet the immediate needs of these individuals in a tangible way as they begin to rebuild their lives. If we receive more than we need for our employees, the surplus funds will be donated to a trustworthy nonprofit agency on Maui (to be determined) that is directly assisting those experiencing hardship from the fires.

Mahalo (thank you) for helping in any way you can.
