Mission :

Close the achievement gap in public education so that all of Hawaii's children, regardless of their socioeconomic background, have access to and benefit from high-quality education, from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, that prepares them for a successful future;

Restore Hawaii's nearshore marine life populations so that future generations can benefit and learn from this rich natural resource;

Build on the strengths of Windward Oahu communities through investments that support the region's rich cultural legacy, its youth and families, and its natural resources; and

Invest in a limited number of other unforeseen but compelling opportunities to make a big difference in Hawaii's future.
