'It's not going to be months, it's going to be years' Maui Strong Fund leader details recovery

LAHAINA, Hawaii (KHON2) -- As we approach tomorrow's one-year anniversary of the wildfires on Maui, many survivors are still in need of assistance, and our community has given millions of dollars in support.

Micah Kane, the President & CEO of the Hawaii Community Foundation and their Maui Strong Fund joined Wake Up 2Day on Wednesday morning to talk about what the help has done, and where it's going next.

"When the Maui fires hit we had a really good understanding of the role we could play and I'm really proud of our team and what's been done so far," Kane said of the Hawaii Community Foundation's work on Kauai's flooding in 2018, the Kilauea eruption that year, and COVID.

He added that to date they've received $195 million raised from over 240,000 individuals from over 75 countries.
