We are Hawaiʻi Island's food bank. Both warehouses have generators, and as soon as conditions are safe after the storm, we will post right here where and when food is moving.

Puna, Kaʻū, Hāmākua, Kohala, Kona: send this to somebody who needs it. Most people who need this post will never see it unless you send it. Check on your neighbors and kūpuna. For road and shelter information, follow Hawaiʻi County Civil Defense, (808) 935-0031.
