One Castle Rock woman told ColetteBordelon she found a way to support Maui in the form of her business Coffee Sarap, and a drink called the Lahaina Latte. Half of the proceeds from the latte will be donated.
CASTLE ROCK, Colo. — The death toll of the Maui wildfires has reached 96 people, meaning it is the deadliest wildfire in more than a century in United States. That is only expected to rise as the search for missing people continues.
“I had a customer come up to me the next day, and she was part of the Marshall Fire. And she gave me cash, like, just right up front, and she goes, 'Is there any way you can get this to your friend?' And I said, 'Oh, absolutely. Like, thank you so much,'" Solemsaas recalled. “'People donated a bunch of stuff to us from the Marshall Fire.' She goes, 'I got an instant pot but I have no kitchen to plug it into. I needed money, not things.
Solemsaas does not know when she woill stop donating proceeds from the Lahaina Latte to the Pagdilao family, or to people in Maui who need the support.Donations are pouring into Maui, and many of the items are needed. However, money makes the biggest impact when it comes to rebuilding and supporting those who need it. It was something Lori Abbey learned last year following the Marshall Fire in Boulder County at the end of 2021.
What Abbey experienced after the Marshall Fire drove home the importance of monetary donations following a natural disaster. She spent time researching where she should donate, and then ensured the organization was in good standing with the state.
