Support for Students Affected by the Fires
Financial Support
The entire UH community is grateful and fortunate to have generous and caring partners such as the Stupski Foundation stepping up to help during this time of need. To support students most impacted by the Lāhaina Wildfires, students of any UH campus who resided in the 96761 and 96767 zip codes will be receiving a $2,000 emergency relief award.
If you signed up for e-refund with UH, the funds will be deposited into your bank account. If you did not previously sign up for e-refund, a paper check will be available for you to pick up at the UH Maui College Cashier’s Office in the Ho‘okipa Building. You can also make arrangements to pick up your check at your UH home campus by contacting Talia Purdy, Fiscal Specialist, at Maui College at 808-984-3387 or by emailing at [email protected].
