Mana O Maui is fundraising for up to 4 full scholarships for a Maui fire victim to attend this healing retreat offering through Maui Surfer Girls, Julia Hengst, LMFT and Jane Woodward, LICSW. For more information about the retreat please check out: Soul Retrieval Surf Retreat.
Here's a note from the program leader of Soul Retrieval Surf Retreat, Julia Hengst, LMFT:
Imagine facing the unimaginable—losing everything in a devastating fire. This is the reality for many women who survived the Lahaina fire last August. They've lost homes, possessions, and their sense of security.
We truly believe in the healing power of the ocean and community. August 8 is the one year anniversary of the fires, and we hope to extend our aloha to some survivors at this tender and charged time. Today, we invite you to continue your amazing support of Lahaina fire survivors on their journey towards healing and renewal by helping up to four women attend our Soul Retrieval Surf Retreat this fall.

Imagine the therapeutic embrace of the Pacific Ocean coupled with shamanic healing practices, yoga and fun. Our healing surf retreat offers a safe space (guided by licensed therapists) where survivors can process trauma, rediscover inner strength, and find solace in nature's beauty along Maui's breathtaking shores.
Your donation will directly fund:
1. Camp Scholarships: Full funding for up to four women to attend the entire retreat, with a discounted rate of $3500 per person.
2. Accommodations: Providing comfortable lodging where these courageous women can rest and recharge.
3. Community: Facilitating a fun, welcoming and safe community. Laughter heals!
4. Healing Sessions: Offering holistic healing practices such as shamanic rituals, yoga and art led by qualified therapists and teachers.
Join us in making a difference, while receiving a tax deductible receipt for your donation from Mana O Maui. Please consider donating today and sharing our campaign with your friends, family, and networks. Your contribution will bring hope and healing to these incredible women who have endured so much.
Let's come together as a community to uplift and empower Lahaina fire survivors. Together, we can make a difference—one wave of support at a time.
Mahalo for your generosity and compassion.
Warmest aloha,
Julia Hengst, MFT and the entire Maui Surfer Girls ohana
