The 2023–24 HAI Chair and Rainbow Helicopters founder, Nicole Battjes, and her team sent supplies to the residents of Maui after the town of Lahaina was devastated by the deadliest fire in the United States in more than 100 years. Over the past few days, the Honolulu-based crew has flown 2,500lbs of supplies to Maui, focusing on mothers’ and babies’ needs.
“We are so grateful we can focus on moms who are in such desperate immediate need of assistance during a disaster such as this,” says Battjes. “We’re eager to make an impact where it’s really needed. Our A-Star has been a champ in helping us deliver over 200 containers of formula, 50 boxes of diapers, and 50 boxes of wipes.”
Rainbow Helicopters has also established a GoFundMe page for readers who would like to help the people of Maui.
