Hoʻolei Scholarship Fundraising

During the month of February, we have set a goal of raising $250,000 so that our local high school seniors can get their first year college free. 

Our Hoʻolei Scholarship will support the cost of tuition and provide access to on campus employment for all Kauaʻi Island public and charter school seniors who directly come to Kaua`i Community College!
