Maui Rapid Response is an ahupuaʻa based disaster response team made up of individuals from the Maui community and a number of nonprofit and direct-aid organizations. Founded in 2020 in response to the Covid-19 shut down, Maui Rapid Response is a decentralized citizen collective driven entirely by community values and needs, with a commitment to prioritizing support for native Hawaiians and vulnerable members of our local community. All funds raised in our Maui Mutual Aid Fund and any other fundraising efforts are administered by nonprofit fiscal sponsor Grants Central Station, a 501(c)(3) organization.
