??? Philanthropy Spotlight: Maui Wildfire Relief

Like many of you, I was heartbroken by images of the devastation on Maui.

Historic wildfires have destroyed this land and torn apart communities... but no matter where you are, you can help.

I spent the weekend researching legitimate non-profits to support the relief efforts. By donating to these orgs, you can be confident your money is going to help people in need:

• Hawaii Community Foundation
• Maui United Way
• American Red Cross

I believe the ultimate definition of success is having the means to help others... no matter how big or small.

My heart goes out to all the citizens of Maui and the brave first responders leading the relief efforts. Now is the time to take care of each other! ??
