Post from the RIGHT SLICE AFTER HURRICANE LOWELL
KAUAʻI -- OUR DOORS ARE OPEN. AND YOU DO NOT NEED TO BUY ANYTHING.
After Hurricane Lowell, we know many of our neighbors are still without power, internet and other basic services.
We were incredibly fortunate.
The Right Slice has power. We have water. We have internet. And we'd like to share what we have.
BUT PLEASE -- SAFETY FIRST.
We want everyone in our community to make responsible decisions about traveling. Please only drive to Kalāheo if it is safe to do so from where you are. Conditions can vary greatly around the island, and no charge, meal, ice or internet connection is worth putting yourself or anyone else at risk.
If roads in your area are unsafe, blocked, flooded or officials are asking you to stay off them, please stay where you are and stay safe. We'll be here to help when you can safely reach us.
For the next few days, while our island gets back on its feet, we're opening our bakery in Kalāheo as a place where our community can stop in and get a little help.
CHARGE YOUR DEVICES
Bring your phone, tablet or other essential devices and your charging cords. If you have a surge protector or power strip, please bring that too.
MAKE A QUICK CALL HOME
Need to let family know you're okay? If you're having trouble with phone service, ask us about using the bakery phone for a short check-in call.
USE OUR INTERNET
Need to get online to contact family, check updates, reach your insurance company or employer, take care of necessary business, or handle something important? Come in and use our Wi-Fi.
Please be mindful of your internet usage. We're sharing this resource with as many of our neighbors as possible, so we're asking everyone to please limit Wi-Fi use to essential communication and necessary tasks rather than gaming, streaming or other high-bandwidth entertainment. Mahalo for helping us keep it available for the people who need it.
ICE
We'll share small quantities of ice as quickly as our small ice machine can keep up. Please understand that we won't be able to fill large coolers or containers--we'd like to help as many households as we can with the ice we're able to make.
WATER
Bring a jug and we'll help with drinking water in limited quantities while we're able.
AND IF YOU'RE STILL WITHOUT POWER IN KALĀHEO...
Come see us.
We'd like to give you a hot baked pot pie. No charge.
Because sometimes a hot meal is one less thing to worry about.
We'll have some tables and chairs out, too. Charge your phone. Check your messages. Have something to eat. Talk story for a while.
You don't have to purchase anything.
We're simply fortunate enough to have some things right now that many of our neighbors don't, and we'd like to share them.
Everything will be available while supplies, space and our capacity allow. Please be patient with us--we don't know exactly what today will bring either!
TO OUR FRIENDS OFF-ISLAND...
We've already heard from people who love Kauaʻi and are wondering how they can help.
We're working on something.
We'll share more details soon about a way you can help us put food directly into the hands of people here on Kauaʻi who need it.
For today, please help us by SHARING THIS POST, especially with friends and neighbors on the West Side and anyone you know who is still without power.
Take care of each other, Kauaʻi.
