Applications are open until Nov. 15, 2025, with recipients to be announced by Dec. 1, 2025.
Mana O Maui Founder Dustin Tester shared that “there’s still so much healing needed in our community post fires. Thanks to the Robin Jugl Memorial Fund and private donors, we will be able to help a deserving wahine in our Maui community attend our January surf camp. We are looking for women who either lost their home or livelihood due the fires in Lahaina and Kula; or women that have contributed to the Maui community in a significant way in the aftermath of the fires.”
