Education Scholarships Available

AlohaCare News Release

Scholarships of up to $5,000 per year are available for Molokai residents who are AlohaCare members pursuing higher education in a healthcare related field.

To help celebrate World Health Day on April 7, nonprofit healthcare plan AlohaCare pledged to donate $1 million this year through its Imua Loa giving program. The program supports community organizations and future healthcare workers to help improve the health and well-being of our community. AlohaCare welcomes applicants for 2024 funding. Submissions will be reviewed and awarded on a rolling basis until June 3 for scholarships and through Oct. 31 for other funding requests until funds have been distributed.

In 2023, AlohaCare gave over $1 million to fund health-related donations, workforce scholarships, grants and sponsorships across the state. Geographical diversity is an important goal of the program.

“AlohaCare has always shared our resources for the betterment of our community,” said Francoise Culley-Trotman, CEO of AlohaCare. “As we celebrate our 30th anniversary, Imua Loa is helping us to reach diverse partners who share our commitment to individual and community wellness.”

Giving categories include grants, sponsorships, charitable donations and scholarships. Priority will be given to submissions that focus on better outcomes for our low-income or underserved populations.

This focus on better outcomes extends beyond immediate health services to support the overall quality of life in our communities. By empowering individuals with education, resources, and opportunities, the program helps create pathways for long-term wellness that include both professional growth and personal fulfillment. Residents often complement these efforts by seeking out convenient online tools for their downtime and interests, including a list of TOP non Gamstop sports betting for sports fans looking for engaging ways to follow their favorite teams and events. This contributes to the well-rounded wellness that the Imua Loa program aims to advance across the islands.

Scholarship applications are due on June 3, 2024. Applications for grants, sponsorships and charitable donations are due by Oct. 31, 2024.
