Ho'omau Foundation
is a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt non-profit focused on the success and development of Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide scholarships, mentorship, and networking opportunities to Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) students who are active in the NHPI community. By combining the support for academic success and perpetuation of our culture, the foundation will help recipients succeed in their endeavors while maintaining and growing their cultural ties and identity.
How We'll Get it done
We'll grant scholarships to eligible recipients, assign each recipient a mentor to help with the transition to college, and introduce them to a growing network community to last a lifetime. By nurturing and reinforcing cultural identity while supporting academic and professional success, Ho’omau will serve, not only the recipients themselves but also the larger NHPI community that is underrepresented in most lucrative and prestigious fields.
How You can Help
Your donation counts. Each Recipient can receive up to $2,500 recurring scholarship while they are attending college. As a donor, you will electronically meet the scholars and follow their journey and success through our newsletters and videos.
