Lahaina Strong Charitable Fund
Support the community-building, educational, and cultural side of Lahaina's recovery with a fully tax-deductible contribution.
About This Fund
The Lahaina Strong Charitable Fund is a 501(c)3 fund hosted by the State Democracy Project. It powers our community service, engagement, educational, and recovery programs.
Contributions to this fund are fully tax-deductible and support the direct community-building work of Lahaina Strong: programs, healing spaces, cultural events, and services that reach survivors every day.
This fund is ideal for foundations, businesses, and individual donors who need a charitable vehicle. It is distinct from our 501(c)4 advocacy fund, which supports our political organizing and legislative work.
