The Naughty Pig West Hollywood is raising funds to support sister bar, the Dirty Monkey, which burned down in the Lahaina fires this last week. According to an Instagram post, “On Tuesday night, a fire ripped through the town of Lahaina on Maui, burning it to the ground. That included our sister bar @dirtymonkeymaui. We are happy to report that all of our coworkers are accounted for and safe, but many of them have lost everything- homes, personal belongings, and any sense of security.”
The Naughty Pig, located on the Sunset Strip, at 8264 Sunset Blvd, is hosting a karaoke fundraiser on Thursday, August 17, 2023, starting at 10pm.

“We’re reaching out to you with heavy hearts, as the recent Lahaina fires didn’t just burn down our restaurant, they took away the homes, jobs, and normalcy of our dedicated staff.
Our team members, more than just colleagues, are family. After being separated for two days due to the chaos, they’ve finally reunited, seeking shelter together. But the road ahead is tough, and they need your help.
We’ve set up this GoFundMe to provide direct and immediate support to our staff who’ve lost everything. 100% of your contributions will go straight to them, helping them secure essentials like food, clothing, and shelter. Matt Robb, one of the owners, will oversee the distribution of funds to ensure every dollar aids our team.
We are ready to stand by our staff’s side and face the challenges ahead. Your support is a ray of hope in these dark times. Join us in assisting the Dirty Monkey family as we rebuild stronger and more resilient than ever.
With gratitude,
Alen, Matt, & Ryan
The Dirty Monkey Lahaina”
