Fellow Rotarians, It was difficult to see the devastation that has engulfed Maui, Hawaii, especially having spent time in the charming town of Lahaina. Today the town is ashes, and many homes in Maui are lost to the tragic fire that is still raging. I am sharing a message from Hawaii's District 5000 Governor asking for our help. Please consider passing this information to others who have experienced the beauty of Maui, or have the heart and means to help with a donation of any kind. <br>
Help Create Hope in the World<br>

DG Mark Merriam shared the following:<br>
<br>
Maui No Ka Oi
<p>August 9, 2023, was a tragic day for our Rotarians, families, and friends on the Island of Maui. The fires across the island have changed lives forever. Truly devastating. Our sympathy, thoughts, and prayers are with everyone impacted.</p>
<p>As people of action, we can take immediate action. As we come together to recover and rebuild, we need to support each other. We need to Create Hope for Maui.</p>
<p>Through our Rotary District 5000 Foundation, a relief fund has been established. Foundation President Dave Hamil and Treasurer Sharon Amano will handle all donations. A committee will be organized shortly to find the greatest needs for the distribution of monies. A single fund will be the most helpful over time to provide the most significant benefits.</p>

<p>Mahalo to the Rotary Club of Waikiki for collecting monies at their lunch meeting today. These are the first contributions to the fund.</p>
<p>Please also widely share this opportunity to help.</p>
<p>Stay safe, take care, and mahalo for creating hope.</p>
