  • LAHAINA, HAWAII – OCTOBER 09: Volunteers from Samaritan’s Purse help a daughter search for family items in the rubble of her mother’s wildfire destroyed home on October 09, 2023 in Lahaina, Hawaii. Volunteers from Samaritan’s Purse helped displaced residents and family members search for meaningful personal belongings at several destroyed homes in the area. The wind-whipped wildfire on August 8th killed at least 98 people while displacing thousands more and destroying over 2,000 buildings in the historic town, most of which were homes.

  • Richy Palalay, who was born and raise in the Hawaii town of Lahaina on the island of Maui, shows his “Lahaina Grown” tattoo at an evacuation shelter in Wailuku, Hawaii on Saturday, Aug. 12, 2023. There’s concern that any homes rebuilt after a wildfire that tore through Lahaina will be targeted not at homegrown residents who give the town its spirit and identity but instead affluent outsiders seeking a tropical haven. That would turbo-charge what is already one of Hawaii’s gravest and biggest challenges: the exodus and of Native Hawaiian and local-born residents who can no longer afford to live in their homeland.
