TY for both of you coming together to help these people. I just saw on the news and started tearing up.

I wish I could help but all I can do is PRAY I feel for these people so unfortunate what happened there!

Fantastic idea Maui community would appreciate that strategy.

Help them people keep their land.
It’s a land grab.
Remember the dead don’t sleep.

Oprah Winfrey is worth over 2 billion dollars! I wonder how much money she donated? Her and Dwayne Johnson could donate a million a piece and would never miss it!

This is so disingenuous!

Tell me you will not be part of the billionaire funds that are raised to „rebuild“ and bring „new life“ to the island?

Never let a good disaster go to waste!

If a millionaire and billionaire can come together put together 10 million towards helping people of Maui don’t you think it would be faster if they got their other millionaire and billionaire friends to all put together their millions towards that. It would be a lot faster that’s for sure.

You always impress me a lot. You prove to be a life saver as well. Love you

Feeling guilty about it. And now she’s asking for money to help the land that she helped burn down.

I see people on boats taking those people’s supplies because they have roads and roadways blocked off so they can’t go in or get out.

I wish I could help but I’m struggling just to survive and maintain. I’m sure you know what that feels like. I know you’ll come through for those people with this fund. You will always do.

God bless you Boss for your generosity

The whole world was in mourning after the death of Tina Turner.

The legendary singer died yesterday at her home in Switzerland after an illness.

„I had the chance to join Tina Turner onstage during her “Wildest Dreams“ tour and felt a glimpse of her enchanted world.

I was so nervous that my knees were actually knocking together. Dancing onstage with her in Los Angeles was the most fun I ever remember having stepping out of my box.

Tina lived out of the box and encouraged me and every woman to do the same,“ wrote Oprah.

I love the way she’s so giddy about it, made me remember how I used to get whenever someone gifted me a book when I was little.

You are just so awesome. Everyday I try to do better. You make me do better.
Well done.

I love the parking area pavers, the blue window&door trim, flower and the front door of your friends house. Looks very french/European country house.
