Håfa Adai,

As many of you may have seen, Typhoon Sinlaku struck the CNMI earlier this week, bringing days of strong winds and heavy rain that caused devastating damage across our islands.

My family—my mom, dad, two sisters, and brother—live back home in Saipan while I am currently working far away. Thankfully, they were able to evacuate before the storm fully hit and are safe. However, their home has been severely damaged and is now uninhabitable, and their vehicles have also been nearly totaled.

Being so far away and knowing my family no longer has a place to call home has been incredibly difficult. I am reaching out with a humble heart to ask for any support to help them begin rebuilding their lives. Funds raised will go toward emergency housing, repairs, basic necessities, and transportation.

Any amount, no matter how small, would mean the world to my family during this time. If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser would also be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your kindness, prayers, and support during this difficult time.

Si Yu’os Ma’åse’,

(Thank you)
