With a deep love for Maui, celebrated chef and TV personality Guy Fieri teamed up with the Hawaii Restaurant Association (HRA), American Savings Bank (ASB) and Fiserv, Inc., to distribute $600 prepaid debit cards to Lahaina restaurant workers who lost their job when their workplace was destroyed in the tragic wildfires on Aug. 8. With many residents still struggling to purchase everyday essentials, such as food and medication, this gift provides much-needed assistance to Lahaina restaurant workers who have lost so much.
The HRA has spent the last few weeks reaching out to affected Lahaina restaurant owners whose businesses were destroyed by the fire. So far, HRA has been in contact with about 70 restaurant owners.
Lahaina restaurant owners who have been impacted by the Lahaina Widlfire, if you have not yet been in contact with HRA, please email info@hawaiirestaurant.com for more information on the prepaid debit card program.
Anyone interested in making additional donations to Lahaina restaurant workers impacted by the wildfires should contact HRA at the email listed above.
