The Paubox Kahikina Scholarship helps Native Hawaiian students pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) and Tech in general. Its purpose is to offer financial support and create a strong network for these students. The scholarship makes education more affordable and connects students with professionals, giving them valuable opportunities to learn and grow in their chosen STEM or Tech fields. This scholarship is about more than just money; it's about building a community and empowering Native Hawaiian students to succeed in STEM or Tech careers.

"This year, I had an absolute blast at USC expanding my knowledge on programming, math, and so much more. I joined many clubs such as the Hawaiʻi Club and Women in Computing. I look forward to serving on the leadership boards of both clubs this coming year. I look forward to another amazing and exciting year ahead at USC! Thank you to Mr. Hoala Greevy and Paubox for the continued support!"
