We are ‘Ohana Tevaga. Marvin and I along with our 5 keiki 16,14,11,9,4 lost the home we put everything into and waited 12 years to get into. With minutes to leave and our daddy in the mainland, We feel so so grateful to be alive and safe.
Like so so many, it was our dream to own in Hawaii and specially Lahaina because of the community, It wasn’t the house specifically that was our dream, it was our neighborhood that we love and will miss most.
Our home was the gathering place we dreamed of. Hosting hula classes, yoga classes, lei making, backyard concerts, the neighborhood keiki playground, concerts always full of life and what we will miss most.
Marvin is a Lahaina boy through and through, Raised on Baker Street at Lahaina Surf, being taught to play ukulele at Kam 3rd elementary by the late Wendall Warrington, he is one of Lahaina’s loved Musicians.
Growing up as a “Kolohe Kid” it was his School resource officer at Lahainaluna high school, that mentored him to make changes and later become a school resource officer himself with Maui PD.
U’ilani was raised on Oahu but traces her Family roots to Lahaina, and Ka’anapali into the 1700s. An advocate for Lahaina and Lahaina Keiki and all things Hawaii, her passion is working closely with Women in trauma informed healing work.
We are saddened for all that has been lost but hopeful by the love and aloha that has been shared with our beautiful community,
Mahalo for your generosity, we are a town committed to helping one another and know that what ever ‘Ohana you help, will help the next cuz that is #LAHAINASTRONG
