Winds and flooding from Hurricane Lowell may cause power outages.

Please set your radio and car presets to these primary local emergency radio stations, and make sure you have extra batteries for your radio.

Radio is an essential tool for getting updates when the power is out or when cell coverage is down.

Many other stations also relay emergency broadcasts.

Hurricane Lala has devastated communities across the Hawaiian islands. More than 100 homes on Hawaiʻi Island have been swept away by flood water, critical infrastructure is estimated to have sustained hundreds of millions of dollars in damage, and ongoing power outages have left thousands disconnected — all threatening the livelihoods of workers in our community.

Workers and their families need our immediate kōkua.

[To apply] The Hawaiʻi Workers Center is offering one-time Kōkua Fund assistance for workers impacted by Hurricane Lala. To apply and with any questions, please contact us at:

📞 (808) 743-1031

[To donate] Contribute directly to the Kōkua Fund with memo “Lala Kōkua” at
