What Scholarships are available?

Scholarships are available for students attending college/university. In addition, several scholarships are designated for students who meet specific criteria, including two scholarships specifically designated for students who have best served the Pacific Islander Community, one or two scholarships for low-income students, one scholarship for a vocational school student, and one or two scholarships awarded jointly with Ronald MacDonald House Charities. If an insufficient number of qualified candidates apply for the specifically designated categories, the Foundation may expand the number of college/university scholarships granted in 2008, may roll the funds over for next year’s scholarships, or do a combination of both.
