Parisa Fitz-Henley Instagram – My dear friend of 25+ years @raziwilson is taking things back home to Maui in a few days to help after these heartbreaking fires. This is for people she knows personally and whose needs she’s able to address directly. She is inviting others to contribute. If you feel moved to donate through an individual, she is someone I’ve always known to be trustworthy, huge-hearted and no non-sense. She’ll make sure people get what they need. Thank you. 🙏 For those who’d prefer an org, via @abcnews: “The Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement pledged to match donations — up to $100,000 initially, now increased to $1 million — for a campaign they began Wednesday, with initial support from the Alakaʻina Foundation Family of Companies. An online tracker shows that more than $442,000 has been given from 3,300 people as of Thursday.” And GoFundMe also has vetted fundraisers for individuals. If you’re reading this from Hawaii, please know you’ve been in our hearts and prayers. May your hearts be soothed in the midst of all this loss and grief. And may you have the gentlest, quickest healing and restoration possible. Sending you so much love. 🙏🌺🤍 Slide descriptions: 1. Video of me up close, talking to camera. My hair is up and I’m wearing a black t-shirt. 2. A background that looks almost like a sky at sunset, but is actually an area of hills, trees and homes with flames and smoke all around. The message superimposed reads: “FROM RAZI: I am traveling back to Maui on the 18th and am going to bring supplies. If you would like to donate please Venmo @razi-wilson. I’ll be bringing specifically what families are needing right now. 3. A Venmo QR code for Razi with her photo at the center.
