Longtime Lahaina swim instructor needs help rebuilding business after fire

Longtime Lahaina swim instructor Benae Basurto is seeking community support to rebuild her business, Little Honu Swim School, following the devastating 2023 wildfires. While Basurto has successfully rebuilt her home, her backyard pool remains damaged, preventing her from resuming the lessons she provided to over 120 children weekly. She is currently raising $30,000 to restore the facility, which she describes as a vital community hub for local families.
