Phonexay Louangrath has been a dedicated farmer in the Waialua area for over 20 years, growing crops like bittermelon, green bean, and okra. In March 2026, the Kona Low Storm swept through the region, causing devastating damage to his farm. The storm washed out all of his crops and left his land unfit for planting. Even worse, his essential farming machinery—including his tractor and generator—became unusable, making it impossible for him to begin the recovery process.
Farming is not just Phonexay’s livelihood; it’s his passion and the foundation of his life in Waialua. Every dollar will help Phonexay take the first steps toward recovery and bring hope back into his life.
Phonexay expresses great for any help that the community wants to give. Your support will make a real difference as he works to overcome this setback and return to the work he loves. Thank you for standing with him during this challenging time.
This GoFundMe was created by the volunteers from Help Maui Rise for the Storm Kōkua initiative and will directly benefit Phonexay and his bank information was added for him to withdraw directly.
