About This Fundraiser My name is Brian Burik, owner of Tradition Coffee Roasters in Kailua, Oʻahu. I am organizing this fundraiser to directly support families impacted by the recent North Shore flooding. I will be personally receiving all donations and distributing them to affected families in our community. Because many families are still being identified and circumstances are changing rapidly, funds will be distributed on a rolling basis to those most in need. This includes local families who have experienced property damage, displacement, or loss of essential resources due to the flooding. How Funds Will Be Used All funds raised will be used to provide immediate relief, including: • Grocery and food gift cards • Fuel assistance • Basic household necessities • Tools and supplies needed for cleanup and recovery Funds will typically be distributed in the form of gift cards or direct purchases of essential items to ensure quick and practical support. How Distribution Will Work I will personally identify and connect with families in need through direct outreach and local community networks. Funds will be distributed directly to these families based on urgency and level of impact. I am committed to transparency and will provide updates on how funds are being used and how many families are being supported. This effort is focused on helping our community recover quickly, respectfully, and with dignity.
