“All Within My Hands is granting $125,000 to flood relief efforts in Hawaii through three local organizations: the @hawaiiancouncil, the @lahuifoundation, and @huioheenalunorthshore. Hawaii is facing the worst flooding it’s seen in more than two decades, leaving the islands suffering an estimated US$1B in damage statewide. The torrential rains, saturated soil, and surging rivers have ravaged hundreds of homes and farms across the island. While the heaviest rains have passed, flash floods remain possible in the coming days,” the caption reads.
