My name is Shanelle Pasalo. Our family lived in the beautiful historic Lahaina town, in the same home, for many generations. Like many others, we were affected by the Lahaina wildfires and lost everything. We escaped only with the clothes on our back, car and phones. Leaving everything we owned behind. The home that was open to all, filled with memories and joy is sadly no longer.
Our family is all back together after days of being separated with no contact. We are so grateful to all be together and we thank God our family is safe and well.
It pains us to ask for help, as many people are also in need. We have never done anything like this but, we are trying to get back on our feet and anything will help.
