About Scholarship

The Hokulani Hawaii Fund was established in 2012, by Estelle M. Kelley, to support those with less means to experience the life gift of an education marked by openness, critical inquiry, and a strong development of emotional values. This scholarship gives preference to small private institutions with strong core liberal arts and science curriculums. The donor requires the applicants to demonstrate financial need, with a preference for students from middle income families. The donor requires the applicants to be a graduate of a public or private high school in Hawaii within the last three years. First-time applicants must have a GPA between 2.9-3.4. The donor also requires the applicants to attend a private accredited college or university on the US mainland with: undergraduate population between 1,000-5,000 students; strong core curriculum that includes liberal arts and sciences; undergraduate professional schools that require core liberal arts curriculum accepted; and encourages global studies. Preference will be given to students applying for renewal; students who are the first generation in their family to attend college; students who attend at least their last two years at a Hawaii high school; excludes GED and home schooled students. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Hawai'i Community Foundation for more information.
