Yes, the airlines are doing all they can to move people off the island of Maui. There is disaster relief coming from the Feds. And Mercy Chefs (a great organization) has been deployed to Maui. They cook food on a large scale, to feed the people who are now homeless. Thousands of residents. If anyone wants to really help, they can support MercyChefs.com and provide food for the victims. They don't need a quilt (yet), they need meals.
