  • Parent and Family Giving

    With a shared interest and responsibility to make Punahou the best it can be for our kids, parents are an integral part of Punahou’s tradition of giving. Over 1,500 families made a gift last year, supporting the School’s important mission and setting a meaningful example of community spirit, gratitude and giving back. Gifts at any level are needed and appreciated, it’s the act of participating in giving every year that matters.

PARENT AND FAMILY PARTICIPATION (2026 – 2027 SCHOOL YEAR)

Participation goals are set based on previous year participation rates as well as fundraising strategies created by the PAC and Annual Giving team.
