Our Board of Governors is made up of respected community leaders who represent the rich diversity and broad interests of Hawaii. Their knowledge of and sensitivity to Hawaii's issues and needs provide invaluable leadership to the Hawaii Community Foundation.
The board establishes policies, sets organization-wide priorities and program strategies, and ensures that the financial stewardship and operations of HCF are conducted with integrity and accountability. The work of current board members builds on that of 85 past Board of Governors members who have served HCF with distinction over the organization's 96-year history.
