BTC, ETH, SOL, LTC, DOGE, and SHIB are among the cryptocurrencies supported by the People’s Fund of Maui.
The prominent American actor Dwayne Johnson (better known as The Rock) and the talk show host Oprah Winfrey launched an initiative focused on helping those displaced by the devastating wildfires in Maui, Hawaii.
The so-called People’s Fund of Maui is available for contributors from all over the globe and accepts donations in cryptocurrencies.
Crypto to the Rescue
The Rock took it to X (Twitter) to explain that the fund will put money “directly in the pockets of those who were affected by the recent wildfires.”
He clarified that every adult resident of Lahaina and Kula (the regions that suffered the worst from the natural disaster) is eligible to receive $1,200 per month “to help them through this period of recovery.”
The popular Hollywood actor and his partner in the move – Oprah Winfrey – started the campaign by donating $10 million and urged people to continue the good deed.
