Hear from our student recipients

Listen to their stories and find out how the Kaneta Foundation has impacted their educational journey.

“My parents and grandparents never received a college education because they simply could not afford it. Their American dreams were to go directly into the workforce and start making money so that they could one day help put me through college to pursue my dream. As a senior biology major, I have my dream career in sight, and the Lunalilo Scholarship Project is helping me make that dream a reality.”

“I cannot express how amazing it feels to be on the receiving end of the Lunalilo Scholarship. I hope one day to be able to do what your organization has done. Give one of the greatest gifts possible, the gift of education. ”

“I Am About To Graduate This Year, With My A.A. In Liberal Arts. Honestly, I Didn’t Think I’d Make It This Far.”

“I Always Wanted To Go Back To School But I Could Never Go Back Because Of The Money. I Always Worked 2, Or 3 Jobs, But Could Never Save To Just Pay For That First Semester. When I Got This Scholarship Through Lunalilo Scholars, It Opened The Door For Me. It Was A Dream Come True For Me. I’m Going To Graduate In May.”
