White text on a blue background reading, "Federal cuts just hit home at Maui Humane Society. With less than 24 hours notice, we've lost funding that employed Lahaina wildfire survivors at our shelter, via the National Dislocated Workers Grant program. These dedicated team members provided support of essential daily care and safety for our animals and team members. This sudden cut impacts both our displaced Lahaina 'ohana and the animals who rely on them. We are actively exploring ways to support these team members and will keep our community updated as we navigate this heartbreaking situation."
Screenshot of tweet reading I have been informed the evacuation warning that many of us just received on our phones was mistakenly issued countywide due to a technical error. A correction will be issued shortly.
