Hawaii is in danger of losing some of its most historically significant buildings, including a Shinto shrine on Maui, warns the nonprofit Historic Hawai'i Foundation.

The Maui Jinsha Shinto Shrine, dedicated in 1915 but painstakingly moved after World War II, needs more than $800,000 in repairs and restoration work, the foundation estimates.
