WAILUKU, HI (April 3, 2025) — Credit unions across Maui have come together to donate $200,000 to Habitat for Humanity Maui in support of wildfire recovery efforts. This generous contribution, made by the Credit Unions of Maui, including Kahului FCU, Lana’i FCU, Maui Fed CU, Maui County FCU, Maui Teachers FCU, Wailuku FCU, and Valley Isle Community FCU, will help fund critical home repairs and rebuilding for families impacted by the 2023 Maui wildfires.
“We are incredibly grateful for the generosity of Maui’s credit unions,” said Matt Bachman, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity Maui. “This donation will go directly toward helping fire survivors rebuild their homes and lives. With so many families still in need of permanent housing, partnerships like this are essential to accelerating the recovery process.”
Habitat Maui’s wildfire recovery programs provide both financial assistance and reconstruction support to affected homeowners. Through these initiatives, families receive help covering insurance gaps, essential repairs, and full home rebuilds, ensuring they have a safe and stable place to live.
“This donation from the Credit Unions of Maui is thanks to the generosity of credit unions across the country and reflects the unwavering commitment of credit unions to the communities which we belong,” said Trevor Tokishi, Valley Isle Community FCU CEO. “Credit unions are built on the philosophy of ‘people helping people,’ and we stand together to support our members and neighbors as they rebuild their homes and lives.”
