Hurricane Preparedness

Serving Our Houseless Friends in Waimanalo In An Emergency

First Prez is Here to Assist our vulnerable friends in Waimanalo

The Impact Ministry Team (First Prez’s outreach mission) has organized a hurricane response team that is working to get us ready to assist the community living on the beach in Waimanalo. We have purchased 3-day emergency supply kits that evacuees can take with them to the shelter. We are looking for a team of 15-20 people who will be willing to help our friends pack up their belongings 48 hours before the arrival of a storm and transport their belongs to a secure location. Ensuring that their belongings will be secure will free our friends to evacuate the beach and ride out the storm in a Red Cross approved shelter.

How You Can Help
