Episcopal Relief & Development Hawai'i Fire Response
The blaze that swept through West Maui is the deadliest US wildfire in over a century. High winds from Hurricane Dora and drought conditions combined to accelerate the growth of brush fires that devastated the Lahaina community in Hawaiʻi.
Episcopal Relief & Development is in contact with the Episcopal Diocese of Hawaiʻi in the wake of wildfires that have killed many people and displaced hundreds of families on Maui. They are calling on churches to help support the response.
Visit episcopalrelief.org to make a donation today.
