Visiting West Maui this Winter?

If you're visiting West Maui during the winter months, it's important to recognize the profound loss our community has experienced. Local residents are still healing, and your compassion, empathy, and kindness mean the world to us during your stay. Please be mindful that your vacation rental may be near/next door to a local family who has suffered immense losses. Refrain from discussing the wildfire, asking for their stories, or taking photos or videos. These actions can be deeply hurtful to a community still on the path to recovery. Your understanding and consideration mean a lot to those around you. Your presence greatly supports our local businesses during these challenging times, and we're truly grateful for your choice to vacation in Maui.

We also encourage you to consider volunteering during your visit, allowing you to give back to our beloved paradise. Here are some volunteer options to consider:

• Hungry Heroes Hawaii

• Hua Momona Farms

• Common Ground Collective

• Boots on the Ground Maui

• Hands on Maui

• Feed My Sheep

• Maui Humane Society

• Hawaii Animal Rescue Foundation

• Maui Food Bank

• World Central Kitchen

Your kindness and involvement make a meaningful impact on our community. Thank you for being a part of our healing process.

Mahalo nui.
