Oprah Winfrey, a part-time resident of Maui, has been visiting shelters on the island and pledges continued support to people displaced by the wildfires.
“Mahalo Nui Oprah for following through! She returned with cots, pillows, and toiletries for the people in the shelter in Wailuku. She even spent some time with the people there. It was very much appreciated,” local non-profit group Kāko’o Haleakalā posted on Instagram with video of Winfrey carrying pillows through crowds of people on cots and folding chairs.
“Oprah has been to several local shelters to ask first-hand what was most needed,” Oprah’s spokesperson said. “She then went to Walmart and Costco to shop for the items and brought them back. It is heart-breaking devastation.” Hettrick said Winfrey plans to give more support “as it becomes clear which funds can be the most helpful for the short-term and long-term rebuilding.” The wildfires in Maui have ravaged the island, killing over four dozen people.
