What is a VOAD? 

Voluntary Organizations Active in Disasters. There is a National VOAD and state VOADS, like the Hawaii VOAD. VOADs are coalitions of faith-based, government and non-profit organizations that come together to collaborate and coordinate to make disaster work more effective and to avoid duplicating efforts. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance is one of the 70+ members of the national VOAD, and since the Maui fires PDA is also a member of the Hawaii state VOAD. Elder John Toillion is our PDA representative to the Hawaii VOAD.

Elder John Toillion is the PDA representative for the Hawaii VOAD and an elder at Mililani Presbyterian Church on Oahu, in Pacific Presbytery.
