Bailey Rebecca Roberts i.g. @baileyrebeccaroberts, born and raised in Maui, currently residing in Los Angeles, CA has been in close contact with survivors of the Maui Fires. Roberts spoke to Fox News about the impact this has on residents of Maui. “The devastation is far severe than it is depicted on the media. People literally were burned alive in the fire” says Roberts. Roberts also concluded “ its going to take years for Maui to recover and it will never be the same.” Emergency sirens were not activated ahead of the deadly blaze. Roberts urges anyone with vacation plans to visit Maui to cancel them adding Maui is closed despite what you may hear on social media.


Over 1,000 Maui homes were destroyed, local families are without money or resources. Many historical Maui locations have been destroyed including the Laihana Yacht Club. Residents of Maui escaped with only the clothes on their back. Maui is in desperate need of immediate assistance.

  1. Hello, my name is Tatiana Botton and I am in Maui and myself and Matt Walter’s team worked on getting this plane to Maui and the supplies distributed. Can you tell me what Ohana4Maui is? I know you donated some items. Is anyone from your team available for a quick chat? I just want to make sure the dues are going where they need to.
