We are a Pacific Islander education organization that serves the
Pacific Islander community. Although our particular focus is on
Pacific Islander students, we will help any student or community
pursue their educational goals.

- Our members network and share resources with schools to support
student academic achievement.
- We provide financial aid and scholarship information for students and parents.
- Our board members participate in school career day programs and
mentoring programs.
- We introduce career role models and mentors annually to 300 students
and parents through our conferences.
- We speak at academic conferences and introduce research on Pacific
Islander students to educators.
- Grant awards are available to support Pacific Islander student club programs.
