Born out of the COVID-19 crisis, the Stronger Together Hawai‘i Scholarship Fund aims to improve Hawaiʻi students’ rate of postsecondary persistence and completion.
The fund steps out of the box of traditional scholarships and focuses on providing financial and non-financial support through a combination of grants and unrestricted scholarships.
HCF accomplishes this by seeking students affected by the social and economic impacts of COVID-19 who are already receiving student-centered support services through partner organizations supported through Stronger Together grants and then providing these students with scholarships.
This approach reduces barriers to students from underserved and underrepresented backgrounds. The scholarships provide funding for education costs while the grants allow students continued access to support services that help address various non-financial issues that may cause students to drop out.
