Funder Hui Hawaiʻi Resilience & Recovery Funder Collaborative – Hurricane Lala Recovery
Funder Hui is currently coordinating a shared funding cycle for organizations and community groups responding to Hurricane Lala across Hawaiʻi. The Collaborative uses the JustFund Common Application to reduce duplicative grant paperwork and share requests with participating funders.
Deadline: Rolling. Funder Hui states that funding decisions are made on a rolling basis and does not publish a fixed closing date for the Hurricane Lala cycle.
Funding amount: No maximum request amount is published. Funder Hui instructs applicants to request the amount needed based on actual recovery or project costs, and notes that multiple participating funders may work together to support a request.
Who can apply: Nonprofits, fiscally sponsored projects, community-based groups, grassroots organizations, and mutual-aid efforts supporting direct response, recovery, or resilience.
How to apply: Applicants create a JustFund profile, complete the JustFund Common Application, and submit to the applicable Hurricane Lala response cycle. Funder Hui notes that location-specific information should clearly identify the communities and geography being served because participating funders may make decisions based on response geography.
Healthcare and human-services relevance: The cycle is broad rather than healthcare-specific, but it is directly relevant to nonprofit and community-based health, maternal/child health, behavioral-health, social-service, emergency-response, and care-navigation organizations with documented Hurricane Lala response, recovery, or resilience costs.
Applicant diligence: The public Funder Hui page does not state a total funding pool, fixed award ceiling, mandatory match, or a universal list of allowable and unallowable costs. Applicant-specific requirements and any participating-funder restrictions should be confirmed in the live JustFund cycle before finalizing a project budget.
Atlas Opportunity Score: 98/100 conditional. The opportunity is timely, open, statewide, rolling, and deliberately designed for disaster-response organizations, with no published request maximum. Final fit remains applicant-specific and depends on a documented Hurricane Lala response/recovery scope, actual costs, geographic service details, and the live JustFund requirements.
