<div>Hi, my name is Leeanna and I am starting this gofundme for this beautiful mama of 5, Benae. Their home and most of their belongings were completely lost due to the devastating fires in Lahaina on Maui. 
</div>
<div>They lived just a couple blocks from the 
</div>
<div>beautiful historic Front Street.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Although Benae has her own
</div>
<div>children, she has also welcomed many children from the community with open arms. Whether they didn’t have a place to stay, or a meal to eat, or a ride anywhere, or pretty much anything - they always knew Auntie Benae was there for them. She also ran a successful business in her backyard, teaching children to swim called Little Honu Swim School.
</div>
<div>Her energy is infectious and you can count on Aunty Benae to bring good vibes daily on her social media or just in passing on a bike ride, hike, or walking through a grocery store….she will be the one doing handstands :)
</div>
<div>We are trying to help raise funds so they can begin to rebuild not only their home, but also the community.
</div>
<div>If you are able to donate at all, any amount, please consider this family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As the title says, this tragedy took their home but it did not take their ALOHA spirit. They will rebuild! ❤️ ️
</div>
