The flooding that impacted Oʻahu communities, including Waialua and Haleʻiewa, has left families facing, devastating life-changing losses. The Hawaiian Humane Society is committed to supporting the pets and people of these communities not just in the days ahead, but throughout the months of recovery that follow. Here is how you can help:
Donate
A monetary donation is the most flexible and impactful form of support. Flexible funding allows our team to respond to what is actually needed as this situation evolves, rather than being limited to specific items or restricted funds. Every gift, in whatever amount, goes directly toward supporting animals and their people throughout this recovery.
Donate Supplies
If you would like to donate supplies, please check our Amazon Wishlist before purchasing or dropping anything off. Our needs will change significantly as recovery efforts get underway, and we want to make sure that what arrives is what we actually need. Dropping off unsolicited donations, however generous, can create logistical challenges during an active response.
Our most immediate needs include large bath or beach towels (please no hand or dish towels), blankets, Adaptil pheromone spray for dogs, and Feliway pheromone spray for cats to help our animals manage stress during these difficult conditions.
Spread the Word
Helping us to raise awareness and spread the word also makes a big impact. Download our action poster below and share it with your friends, family and network, or post it in your place of business to mobilize your patrons.
Volunteer
At this time, we are not in need of additional volunteers. However, our needs will evolve significantly as recovery efforts get underway and we transition from emergency response to longer-term community support. Please check back here and follow us on social media for updates on volunteer opportunities as they become available.
Stay Informed
Recovery from a disaster of this scale takes time. We are committed to keeping our community informed every step of the way. Follow us on social media (Facebook and Instagram) and check back on this page for the most current information on our needs, our response efforts, and ways to support the pets and people of Waialua and Haleʻiwa.
