 Sponsorship Programs

Through Hawaii Community Foundation, Alu Like, Office of Hawaiian Affairs and Kamehameha Schools, native Hawaiian students are awarded and qualify for numerous grants and scholarships. Students may also receive additional assistance through Oahu Work Links, FAFSA, and other community programs.

 HTI has a diverse student population and encourages those who may not qualify for funding to seek support through our sponsorship program which is based on academic merit and financial need.

 Why Is It A Priority?

The Sponsorship Program is fundamental to the whole educational process and serves as a critical tool in assisting students in beginning their academic journey to a fulfilling career.  The Sponsorship Program opens the doors to education to students from a broad spectrum of socioeconomic backgrounds and who are in career transition.
