As we approach the one-year anniversary of the devastating Maui wildfires that swept through our community on August 8, 2023, we pause to reflect on the journey of recovery and resilience that has unfolded over the past year. The fires, which tragically destroyed over 2,200 structures and caused approximately $5.5 billion in damages, left a profound impact on our community and families, particularly our young keiki.
