Allied Universal is “working to get much-needed supplies, grief counseling and additional support to team members – some who lost loved ones, their homes and their modes of transportation yet have continued reporting to work each day to safeguard their island community,” according to the company announcement.

“Our thoughts go out to the victims, survivors, their loved ones, the 29 customers we serve on Maui, the island’s community and the entire state of Hawaii,” the announcement says.

More than 100 people have been confirmed dead in the aftermath of the Lahaina wildfires.
