About Us
Ho'omau Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt non-profit focused on the success and development of Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islanders (NHPI). Our mission is to provide scholarships, mentorship, and networking opportunities to NHPI students who are active in the NHPI community. We grant scholarships to eligible recipients attending an accredited vocational school, 2 year or 4 year college in the US. 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.
