Before and after
The same shoreline. A different reality.
Front Street was the living room of Lahaina. Shops, music, families, visitors, neighbors, and the banyan tree held a town together in public view.
After the fire, the streets became evidence of what wind and flame can take in a single afternoon. Recovery is now measured in years, permits, housing, health, infrastructure, and grief.

Voices
Keep the human story in front.
The site should move people from shock to trust to action. Survivor voices keep the page human without turning donation into a transaction.
"The heat was like a wall you could feel through the car windows."
Lahaina resident
"My grandfather built that house with his hands. Every beam. Now I have a key to nothing."
Front Street family
"We jumped into the harbor. A hundred of us. Floating in dark water while the town burned behind us."
Survivor, August 8
