We have a scholarship program! The Hawaiian and Indigenous Health and Healing programs now has our very own annual scholarship program administered through the University of Hawaiʻi Foundation. Students must be enrolled in either the BAS-HIHH or HIHH-CERT programs, be either full-time or part–time, and a U.S. citizen to be eligible. Each fall one student will be awarded $1,000. Interested students can contact Dr. Kauʻi Merritt at nicolekb@hawaii.edu until the scholarship is placed on the Fall 2022 UH Foundation application (this will be due during the spring of 2022). Interested donors may our page at the UH Foundation or visit our homepage for an easy donation button.
