<div>Aloha, my name is Gabby, and I’m from the North Shore of Oʻahu.
</div>
<div>I’m creating this page for my aunty Fabi and her son Kalani, who live on Smiley Road in Waialua and were deeply affected by the recent flooding. Their house is raised off the ground and still had about 3 feet of water inside. Thankfully, they were able to safely evacuate, but they didn’t have time to gather any belongings.
</div>
<div>We spent the day trying to salvage wet family photos and belongings, and taking all their furniture and appliances to the dump. Fabi is the kindest person and would never ask for help herself.
</div>
<div>We know there are so many people who need support right now, but anything you can do to help them start over—prayers, donations, or sharing this message—is deeply appreciated.
</div>
<div>How funds will be used:
</div>
<div>* Basic living expenses
</div>
<div>* Replacing essential appliances (refrigerator, stove, washer)
</div>
<div>* Basic furniture (beds, couch, table)
</div>
<div>* Cleanup supplies and home repairs
</div>
<div>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping Fabi and Kalani rebuild.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

 Support Fabi and Kalani as They Rebuild After the Flood

<div>Aloha beautiful community,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the midst of this devastation on the North Shore, we ask those who are able to please consider donating to our dear friend, Crystal Ferguson Young. She is a single mother of two and has sole responsibility for her boys. Sadly, like many others, her home and car were completely flooded, leaving almost nothing salvageable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Crystal is now without a place to live and in need of any help she can get as she takes the next steps: cleaning up the damage, finding a place to stay, and replacing essential belongings.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any support is deeply appreciated. We are praying that everyone stays safe and is able to find the help needed to rebuild.
</div>

Support Crystal and Her Boys After the Flood

<div>I lost almost everything in the recent Kona low flooding on North Oʻahu.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My name is Leilani Bushey and I live directly in the impact zone of the flood. During the storm, floodwaters rushed through my area in the dead of night and completely devastated my home at heights of 6-7ft high. The water came in too fast and didn’t stop. I watched everything I owned get destroyed. There was no time to save anything but my own life and my animals.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My home is now unlivable due to severe damage and contamination, and I’ve been displaced with nowhere stable to go.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>I had to evacuate with almost no time. I left with only my cat, my dog, and the clothes on my back. Neighbors and pets who didn’t make it out were stranded on rooftops waiting for our local neighbors to come save them which they did. 

</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My car was also flooded during the storm, and I don’t know if it’s salvageable, leaving me without reliable transportation. My back up car was swept away by the river and into some ones else’s property and is totaled.On top of that, my workplace has been shut down due to storm damage. (Update as of 3/24/2026 my daily car sustained a flooded engine and isn’t working and is bogging anytime i try to turn it on so I’ll need to replace the engine or the whole car, I’m raising the goal a bit to help compensate for a new means of transportation, thank you for you kindness and support in helping me get back on the road again❤️) 

</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Right now, I’m trying to survive day by day while figuring out how to rebuild my life from nothing. I need help covering basic necessities like temporary housing, food, clothing, transportation, and care for my animals, as well as replacing essential items I’ve lost.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>This has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through. Asking for help is not easy, but I truly can’t do this alone. I have posted a lot video footage of my place on my instagram @suckmyvape I will update more photos on here as I get more available service. 


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Anything helps, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this.❤️

</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Mahalo for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can give.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>With gratitude,


</div>


<div>Leilani

Help Leilani Recover from North Oʻahu Flood Devastation

My mom and her husband are both in their 70s and have spent their lives working as farmers. They rent a 1-acre lot, and when the recent flood swept through, they lost everything—their crops, equipment, and the materials they need to keep going. Because they don’t own the land, they don’t have insurance to help them recover, and starting over at their age is going to be incredibly hard. 
<br>
<br>
 The money raised here will help my mom and her husband pay rent for the farm, buy new seeds and soil, and replace the tractors and equipment that were destroyed. It will take at least 3 months of preparation before they can begin to harvest again, but this support will give them a chance to rebuild and keep doing the work they love, even though the road ahead is long. Every bit of support will help them get back on their feet and bring hope during this difficult time. 
<br>
<br>
 We understand that many people were also impacted by this flood, and our hearts go out to everyone. We appreciate all the love and support—every single penny is greatly appreciated. If you’re not able to help financially, sharing or praying will also be a huge help. Thank you for reading and for caring about their story.

Help My Mom & Her Husband Rebuild After Flood

<div>My name is Dala Kongphan, and I have been a farmer in Waialua since 2020. Farming is not just my livelihood—it’s my passion and the way I support my family. On our 4-acre farm, we grow bitter melon, sugar cane, lemon grass, bananas, sequa, cigar flowers, ti leaf, and okra. These crops are our main source of income and the heart of our daily life. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> In March 2026, the Kona Low Storm changed everything. Our entire property was flooded, and I had to swim out to safety. My brother’s car was lost to the floodwaters, and the structure we lived in is now filled with mud and unlivable. We live here part time, but this land is our home and our hope. The storm didn’t just take our crops—it destroyed our tractor, irrigation systems, broke our deck, and ruined all the equipment we rely on, including generators and weed whackers. The loss is overwhelming, and it’s hard to see a way forward on my own. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> The funds raised will go directly toward immediate and urgent needs. Your generosity will help us rebuild not just our property, but our lives. It’s really difficult to ask for help, but I am so grateful for any support you can give. Thank you for standing with us during this challenging time.
</div>

Help Dala Recover from Kona Low Storm

<div>The Kulcharo Family—Kul, Kiattisak, and their son Teerasak—have dedicated their lives to farming in Waialua, North Shore Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi. For 21 years, Kiattisak has worked the land, growing bittermelon, cucumber, tomatoes, pumpkin, and more. Their farm is not just their workplace, but their home; the family resides in a container on their farmland, living simply and working hard to provide for themselves and their community. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recently, the Kona low storm devastated their 20-acre farm, flooding and decimating half of their land. The storm destroyed their waterway and irrigation system, along with fertilizer, generators, power supply, tools, and essential farming equipment. The Kulcharo Family was present when the storm hit, and thankfully, they were able to reach high ground and stay safe. However, the damage left behind has threatened their livelihood and ability to recover. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Immediate support is needed to help the Kulcharo Family rebuild what was lost and help them get back on their feet. Every little bit helps. Please donate and share if youʻre able to. Mahalo ❤️
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This GoFundMe was created by the volunteers from Help Maui Rise and will directly benefit the Kulcharo Family.
</div>

Help Kulcharo Family Rebuild Farm and Life

<div>On March 20–21, this beloved North Shore home was flooded with 4 feet of water or more, leaving devastating damage throughout the entire house. The home will need to be completely gutted, and with the roof also caving in, it now requires a full rebuild and restoration.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We are asking for help for an incredible woman who has given a lifetime of love, service, and strength to her family and community.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In 1965, she and her husband served a full-time mission together before building a life in Hawaii. Her husband helped build homes in Kuilima, hotels in Waikiki, and contributed to the Polynesian Cultural Center—designing canoes, planting the coconut grove, and building bridges that still stand today. He was deeply loved and respected.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>After his passing over 40 years ago, she raised six children on her own with unwavering faith, love, and determination—working tirelessly to provide for her family.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Now, as a widow of 40 years, her life continues to reflect Christlike love. She has always found joy in serving others, especially through making leis, and her home has long been a place of warmth, welcome, and aloha.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Despite the heartbreaking loss of two children, her faith has remained strong.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Today, she is facing one of her greatest challenges yet.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This flooding has left her home unlivable, and the road ahead will require extensive repairs, rebuilding, and replacing nearly everything that was lost—walls, flooring, appliances, and more.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>She has spent her life lifting others. Now, she truly needs our help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Any support—whether through donation, prayer, or simply sharing this page—would mean so much to her and her family.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Funds will go toward immediate and ongoing needs not fully covered by insurance or FEMA assistance.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Mahalo for helping us come together to support someone who has given so much to so many 

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Carol Feinga has been added as the beneficiary for this fundraiser. Carol is Sela’s daughter.  Once the funds are received through GoFundMe, Carol will provide the funds directly to Sela by paying expenses directly on her behalf.<br />

Support Sela Fenga & Family After Devastating Flood Damage

<div>Aloha, my name is Brandi and I live in Kihei, Maui with my boyfriend Dereck and our two boys, 4 &amp; 2. On March 13, 2026, our home was flooded due to the Kona Low 1 storm. That night, we had to flee through knee deep water with our boys and our dog as the parking lot of our complex turned into a swimming pool. We are very fortunate to have family to stay with until we can move home.

</div>

<div>Unfortunately, like many of our neighbors, we do not have flood insurance as we are not in a flood zone.

</div>

<div>With Dereck's skills and generous helping hands, we were prepared to handle most of our own remediation, however we are finding that due to the flooding involving Cat3 water (highest contamination level) we must have more done to make the home safe for our family than we originally thought.

</div>

<div>We are humbly seeking assistance towards professional remediation of the home, cost of supplies for repair of walls, drywall, and baseboards, as well as flooring supplies and installation. Our first electric bill since the storm has already increased significantly due to the fans and dehumidifiers that have been running since the storm to dry the walls. At least for now, these are the things that we will need to have addressed.

</div>

<div>Thank you for reading our story and we are so thankful for any help at all. Mahalo

</div>

Help Brandi & Dereck Recover from Maui Flood

<div>We weathered the storm here at five corners in Haʻikū, Maui, but barely.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In one night, everything changed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A tree came down and tore through our roof. You can see exactly where the branch punched through: splintered wood, open sky, and rain pouring straight into our home. Since then, everything has been wet, muddy, and breaking down. Parts of the ceiling have already fallen in on us while we were sleeping.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This isn’t just damage, it’s danger.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The roof now has multiple holes and requires replacement of at least 3–4 structural plywood panels. Water intrusion has spread quickly, and mold is already starting to form.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are a local family doing our best to hold it together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are a Choctaw and Native Hawaiian family, raising our kids Ilihia, Abbha and Haalilio "Lio" with love, resilience, and deep connection to place. This home is more than shelter, it’s where our kids feel safe, where we build our lives, and where we feel protected. This is the place where Lio was born seven years ago. Like so many, we need help with few options.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now we’re facing urgent repairs we cannot absorb alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The immediate needs include:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Roof repair and structural plywood replacement
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Water damage mitigation
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Mold remediation
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Interior ceiling and wall restoration
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Basic stabilization to make the home safe again
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We estimate $20,000 to cover the critical repairs needed to make our home livable and safe.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are not asking lightly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking because time matters. Every day that passes allows more water intrusion, more mold progression, and more damage. Acting quickly is the difference between repair and complete loss.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are able to help, whether through a donation or simply sharing this, please know it means everything to us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts, mahalo nui loa for standing with our family during this moment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Aloha,

Help Restore Our Kona Low Storm Home Damage in Haʻikū, Maui

<div>Aloha, my name is Nicole Correa—many people also know me as Pono. I was born and raised on O'ahu, in the small town of Waialua. My family has always been involved in agriculture within the community. I am raising funds for my hānai uncle, <strong>Wendell Toki</strong>, who lost nearly everything during the recent Kona Low storm on Oʻahu.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Uncle Wendell lives in Otake Camp, the area where many people saw the video of a home being swept over the bridge during the storm. While his home was not washed away, it suffered devastating damage. His house is now in demolish condition. The front door and interior doors were blown completely off their hinges, and the garage is collapsing. After the storm, almost nothing inside or around the home was salvageable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>While evacuating with floodwaters already up to his chest, he stopped to help others before thinking of himself. On his way out, he rescued two women who were struggling to escape, then turned around and went back into the rising water to save another person. He also called 911 to alert authorities that the water had begun overtaking nearby homes. Before first responders could even arrive, he had already made a life-saving difference for others—all while his own home was being destroyed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Uncle Wendell is a small, local Native Hawaiian farmer who has spent years caring for his one-acre property. He raised egg-laying chickens and cultivated mamaki, dragon fruit, avocados, soursop, butterfly pea, bananas, and lime trees. The storm destroyed fencing, planting supplies, tools, and essential equipment—everything needed to keep a small farm running.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In addition to losing his home’s structure, he also lost major household items, including a brand-new washer and dryer, two generators, and a new water heater. These were investments he had worked hard to purchase, and losing them all at once has been devastating.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Uncle Wendell is not asking for luxury—only the chance to rebuild and start again.</strong> <strong>Our goal is to raise $10,000 to help him purchase lumber and basic building materials so he can begin restoring his home and farm.</strong> This storm brought relentless rain, and even after the previous 40 days and 40 nights of storms, his property had never flooded like this before.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any support—whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser—will help Uncle Wendell begin rebuilding the home, land, and livelihood he has dedicated his life to. We will be uploading more photos as we have them. It was so overwhelming yesterday that they were unable to get photos but will be getting some today. The funds will be used to purchase essential rebuilding materials such as lumber, water piping, and other construction supplies. If more funds are raised than needed for those expenses, the remaining amount will go toward replacing basic necessities, including clothing, household goods (food, cookware, dishes, and cleaning supplies), a washer and dryer, a water heater, and potentially a replacement vehicle. Mahalo nui loa for your kindness, prayers, and support during this difficult time.
</div>

Support Uncle Wendell's Home and Farm After Kona Low Storm

<div>My name is Dylan Andrion, and I serve in ministry with King’s Cathedral &amp; Chapels and For Liberty &amp; Justice. I am based in Maui, Hawaiʻi.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I traveled to Oʻahu to assist with disaster relief efforts following the recent Kona Low storm, joining our King’s Responders teams who were already on the ground mobilizing volunteers and resources. During that time, I personally met Pastor Glenn Duquez and his family, and have been in direct relationship with them as we’ve supported their immediate and ongoing recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pastor Glenn Duquez, his wife Leilani, their children, and Leilani’s mother, Sister Andres (79), were directly impacted by severe flooding. Just weeks prior, Sister Andres had lost her husband, who had faithfully pastored Jesus Is Alive Fellowship (Hawaii Church of God) for many years. Glenn and Leilani had moved in to help care for her during this time of grief.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>During the flood, the family was forced to escape through a window and climb onto their roof, where they remained stranded for hours awaiting rescue. Glenn himself was separated from his family due to road closures and emergency restrictions, unable to reach them during the crisis.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The flood caused significant damage to both their home, including the church parsonage, and the Jesus Is Alive Fellowship church building. Glenn was scheduled to be installed as the new lead pastor in a special service, but that service was unable to take place due to the flood.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite this, Glenn has officially stepped into his role as lead pastor and is already faithfully shepherding and serving his congregation in the midst of rebuilding.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Funds raised through this campaign will be used specifically for:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Immediate cleanup and debris removal for the home/parsonage and church property
</li>
<li>Repairs and rebuilding of the parsonage so the family has a safe place to live
</li>
<li>Restoration of the Jesus Is Alive Fellowship church building so the congregation can gather again
</li>
<li>Replacement of essential household and ministry items lost in the flood
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am personally connected to this family through our shared ministry efforts and have been directly involved in relief work supporting them. I will ensure that all funds are directed toward these stated needs and used with full transparency and accountability.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Candie Taylor is a part of the Hawaii Church of God Executive Team and has set up the GoFundMe donations to route to their relief fund to directly benefit the Duquez 'Ohana and the rebuilding of the church.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mahalo for your support, prayers, and generosity during this time.

Help Rebuild Church in Waialua After Hawaii Flood

<div>Aloha, please consider making a donation to Marck Aphay and Merrily Cazimero, who lost their home to the devastating Kona low storm that ravaged much of Waialua. The flood destroyed the couple's house of more than 12 years after tearing it from the ground and pushing it directly into Waialua Bridge. While they wait to see what they can do, the two and their family are helping their neighbors who also lost their homes, demonstrating incredible resilience and generosity during an overwhelming crisis. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The couple and their children would greatly appreciate any contribution. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Mahalo nui and aloha. 

</div>

Help Rebuild Marck and Merrily's Home in Waialua

<p>Aloha, 
</p><br />
<p>My name is Kalei Gamiao 
</p><br />
<p>My family and I have been living in Longbridge Haleiwa, Hawaii for multiple generations. 
</p><br />
<p>The recent flood on the North Shore of Oahu was a devastating experience that we will never forget. 
</p><br />
<p>The water flowed violently from across Waialua River, across acres of homes, and made its way to Haleiwa, destroying everything in its path. 
</p><br />
<p><b>Four of our homes on our property have been totally flooded out.</b> The water tore through our entire property, carving out and eating away sections of the land. Cars were pushed up against houses, memories and mementos were literally washed away. 
</p><br />
<p>My father spent his entire life savings and every minute of his days to create a safe place where our family, friends, and community members could gather and enjoy an "authentic Hawaii lifestyle." 
</p><br />
<p>It breaks my heart to see all of my father's hard work and our personal belongings disappear in an instant. 
</p><br />
<p>All the cars on our property were underwater and totaled. I lost 4 dozen musical instruments and $20k in gear, my dad lost $40k in tools. 
</p><br />
<p>The only way for us to evacuate the property was to hop on the backhoe because the water level was too high and the river was gushing across the yard, pushing with a lot of force. 
</p><br />
<p>My sister, who is 7 months pregnant, my mom, who has lupus and essential tremors, my dad, and our 2 dogs jumped on the tractor and drove to safety. My dad and I came back to rescue our tenants who were sitting on their laundry appliances to stay out of the water. We ended up getting stuck on our driveway and had to wait out the flood while rain poured and the flood raged through everything. 
</p><br />
<p>We were stranded on the tractor for about 6 hours before the water level and flow were safe enough for us to climb down. 
</p><br />
<p>It was then that we saw all the devastating damage and our belongings floating down the stream out to the ocean. 
</p><br />
<p>The funds and donations will be used for purchasing building materials, assistance for repairs, medical bills, utilities, appliances for 4 homes, and landscaping. 
</p><br /><br />
<p>We have a lot of work to do and it will take a while before it becomes as beautiful as it once was, but we are very grateful and blessed to be together as a family. 
</p><br />
<p>Even though we lost everything, we still have each other. 
</p><br />
<p><b>Mahalo for your support!</b> 
</p><br />
<p>Blessings, 
</p><br />
<p>-The Gamiao ohana

<div>Aloha, my name is Tanya Fuamatu-Anderson, and I am raising funds for our dear Tuimaunei family. I am an aunt to Soriah and a volleyball coach to her two oldest daughters. We are hoping to raise $15,000 to help with immediate and urgent needs such as basic household essentials, transportation, and their day-to-day needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>While we were away in Japan on a volleyball trip, the Tuimaunei family’s home was severely impacted by the second round of the Kona low storm. Mom (Soriah), Dad (Suaesi), and their two oldest daughters were traveling with us, while their five younger children were at home with their grandparents and aunt.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At approximately 2:00 a.m., with very little warning, they received a call that water had already begun flooding the home while the children and grandparents were still asleep inside.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As conditions rapidly worsened, their aunt acted immediately—carrying each child to safety in the middle of the night. By the grace of God, everyone in the home was able to escape safely.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>During the evacuation, the family’s vehicle was used to help get the children through the floodwaters. That same vehicle is now no longer operational, leaving the family without transportation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are incredibly grateful that all eight family members were able to find safety at a nearby church. However, Suaesi and Soriah, along with their seven children, are now facing the difficult reality of starting over—working to secure basic necessities, transportation, and a sense of normalcy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Tuimaunei family has always been one to give, serve, and uplift others in their community. Now it’s our turn to show up for them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any donation—big or small—will go directly toward helping them meet these urgent needs. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this page and keeping them in your prayers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mahalo nui loa for your love and support.

<div>Help Sinh Farm Rise After Kona Low Flooding
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Aloha Kakou,
</div>
<div>My name is Rani and I am looking to raise funds in support of my mom (Sinh Phanthavong) with restoring her Farm (Sinh Farm) which was recently affected by the recent Kona low storms.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With over 20+ years of experience as a farmer on the island of Oahu, farming has been her only stream of income and is not just a job, but her way of life. Her commitment to farming demands long hours sometimes starting her day before sunrise and working past sunset. Some days would go longer and be more exhausting requiring her to rest at her farm. At around 130am of March 21st my mom was rudely awaken by the Kona low storm and greeted by rising/flood waters that reached up to her hips. Thankfully she made it out safely by braving through the storm, she treaded the flood waters and travelled by foot to Wailua H.S emergency shelter with a group of friends carrying the heavy weight of what’s what’s going to happen next?
</div>
<div>Following the storms, she immediately got right to clearing/cleaning up near knee deep mud on her own in hopes to speed up the process of starting all over again. Her pride and a desire not to be a burden led her to decline help from the amazing community that surrounded her.
</div>
<div>However, after days of working through the mud, as well as processing and accessing the amount of loss, my mom had to take a step back and face the reality of her situation. Twenty-plus years of farming have taught her to be resilient, but this damage is unprecedented. She lost the majority of her crops, tools, and crop infrastructure.
</div>
<div>With this farm being her only means of income, she is now at a point where she can no longer handle the loss alone and is facing the possibility of not being able to cover upcoming farm bills and replacement/rebuilding cost.
</div>
<div>My mom is eager to give back to the community that has always supported her and in order to do that she wants to replant, restore, and continue feeding our island. If you are able to support her recovery, it would mean the world to her. Any donation will go directly towards clearing and restoring crops, repairing crop infrastructure, and purchasing new soil and seeds.

Help Sinh Farm rise after the Kona low flooding

<div><strong>We are currently fundraising in response to the devastating flooding from the March 2026 Kona Low Storms that impacted islands across Hawaiʻi. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters in the US, causing billions of dollars in damage each year and displacing thousands of families. Too often we see people create fundraisers on the GoFundMe platform asking for help in the wake of destructive floods.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>GoFundMe.org has launched this fund to provide direct and immediate support to those impacted by floods this year. Tax deductible donations will go to individuals and families impacted, and to the nonprofit organizations who are responding on the ground. Every dollar will go directly to the communities in need. Your support will help flood survivors begin to rebuild—stronger and together.

<div><strong>Current Need</strong>
</div>
<div>March 20, 2026 - The Hawaiʻi islands are facing the worst flooding they have seen in 20 years. Families have been displaced, homes damaged, and access to basic necessities disrupted across impacted communities. Heavy rains have overwhelmed infrastructure, leaving many residents without safe shelter, reliable transportation, or essential supplies. The situation remains urgent, with more than 5,500 residents ordered to evacuate, hundreds of rescues already taken place, and local responders working to assess an estimated $1B in damages.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>GoFundMe has generously donated $100,000 to kickstart the Hawaiʻi flood response so that grants can be issued in the first 24 hours to verified folks impacted and empower them to access their personal urgent relief needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Who we help</strong>
</div>
<div>We deliver cash grants directly to those impacted by floods in the United States, including all states and territories. We grant to verified individuals who qualify and are fundraising for themselves or on behalf of someone else. We may also provide grants to fundraisers benefiting small businesses and community relief efforts, and to vetted nonprofits coordinating long-term recovery. Grants are unrestricted, providing dignity and autonomy for grantees to meet their personal urgent relief needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why donate to this fund?</strong>
</div>

</div>
<div><br />
