Nature unleashed its wrath on the small island of ‘Maui’. The Hawaiian island that comes under the US has suffered wildfires since the start of August 2023. Looking over the destructions and hazards it poses for the residents, Dwayne Johnson has decided to take matters into his own hands. The WWE legend recently used his fan following for a noble cause on Instagram.

The Rock partnered with the famous American hostess Oprah Winfrey to announce the creation of a charity. The charity aims to provide relief solely to the families hailing from Maui in these tough times.
