Help Pacific Island Communities Recover from Super Typhoon Sinlaku
Super Typhoon Sinlaku — one of the strongest storms ever recorded this early in the year — has brought communities to a halt across Micronesia, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. The tropical cyclone high speed winds and storm surges flooded homes, caused widespread power outages, and cut off access to the supplies and services people depend on.
Pacific Islanders are among the most resilient people in the world — and in moments like this, that strength is met by a community that shows up for one another. The Salvation Army Hawaiian & Pacific Islands Division is honored to stand alongside our corps in Guam, Saipan, Chuuk, and Pohnpei — providing meals, essential supplies, spiritual care, and other support to those impacted.
In close partnership with local government agencies and other disaster relief organizations, The Salvation Army helps island communities recover with compassion and coordination. A trusted partner in the Pacific for more than 130 years, we ensure that every dollar you give goes directly toward helping our Pacific island neighbors get back on their feet.
Thank you for being a lifeline for our Pacific communities.
