Help Our Beloved Dawns Recover!
Donation protected
Aloha Familia! Our beloved Laura & Noah Dawn are going through a huge life-upheaval with the volcanic eruptions happening in their hometown of Pahoa, Hawaii. They have packed up their entire sanctuary as much as possible and are leaving their property with deep hopes of returning to pristine land once again.
However, this is having a mega impact on their income for the summer as they facilitate retreats and with the volcanic eruptions things are shifting every day.
Money from this campaign will be used to cover all damage costs, moving, storage, as well as be a safety-net for all bills and expenses that need to be paid because there is no income coming in.
From Laura's Facebook Post on May 5th:
"My personal sanctuary (my home has been this super cute 40-foot long bus we converted into a tiny home) was rattled hard by the 6.9 earthquake yesterday. Such a shocking moment to come back to pack up more things and realize most of the things I wanted to pack were broken on the floor. This has been so deeply challenging for Noah Mohala Dawn and I (and of course everyone else affected in the area). We have poured our hearts and souls into this land for years and now we are faced with the potential of losing it all and starting our lives over from scratch. Right now we’re going back in with gas masks to relocate our tractor and mower which we could probably get at least 10k each to fund a new start if need be. We’re trying to stay present moment by moment and it’s hard to not think about worst case scenarios, but continuing to pray that our land can be spared, and all we will have to deal with is a major clean up from the past weeks worth of earthquakes. Layers of realities are setting in for us. Regardless if our land is covered or not, this is feeling like a major game changer for us here with Leilani being so close and not knowing how much area will actually be covered and how long this will flow for. The smoke and toxic gases is the worst part for us at the moment in terms of risks to our health.
When looking at the 1960 flow which is what they are comparing this to, it’s not a good outlook.
Our income from the summer is evaporating and we still need to pay all of our mortgages otherwise we will foreclose on our lands. We are praying for clarity on how to proceed. Thank you to everyone who has reached out to us with prayers and loving words of support. We will continue to update you.
Life is so incredibly uncertain.... "
