Hawaii state and county officials have come together to give more financial aid to volcano affected communities. 

Kilauea volcano continues to erupt on the Big Island with active lava flows still destroying everything in its path.

It's been just over one month now since lava flows began, triggering seismic activity and toxic gas emissions.
