Help Shannon Mahoney recover from Maui fires

Donation protected
My name is Jacqueline and I am trying to help my dear friend Shannon Mahoney recover after the deadly Lahaina fire. To know Shannon is to love her, and it means if you go on any adventure, there is likely a borrowed dog she is an aunty to along for the ride. Shannon moved to Lahaina in 2016 and has called it home since then, often helping others learn about the island and its wonders. Like many others, Shannon's life has been irreparably torn apart by the horrific Maui fires. She had to escape her neighborhood with the help of a local man spraying down the road to help her get out. Although her apartment made it through the fire, her job, town, and the harbor is gone. I (and MANY other friends) wanted to start this GoFundMe for Shannon because she is always the one there for everyone else, even when she herself needs help. Since her livelihood burned with Lahaina and the harbor and likely will not recover for years, she is facing the devastating decision of trying to stay on Maui or move off island. Having to make these decisions is not easy, even when you have the safety net of a job and income. Please consider donating to this wonderful human who has always cared for others before herself. The funds provided would give her the ability to either stay with her beautiful, close-knit Maui ohana or make the heartbreaking decision to move off island. Any donation would be appreciated!
