New Funds

New Funds at the Hawai'i Community Foundation

John and Allison Lyles, creators of the John and Allison Lyles Fund.

We warmly welcome HCF clients who have created funds in 2014; they join a very special group of dedicated people who share a passion for helping others and making Hawai'i an even better place to live:Behind every new fund is a compelling story of a donor's passion and a specific reason for giving back to the community. Though their interests may vary, what HCF clients have in common is a passion for Hawai'i and a strong desire to make a meaningful impact during and beyond their lifetimes.

DREAM Fund

More than 2,300 young adults in Hawai‘i have immigrated to the United States when they were under the age of 16, and are currently eligible to apply for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) relief. Created in 2012 by President Obama, DACA gives undocumented young adults between the ages of 18 and 32 the opportunity to obtain social security numbers, two-year work permits and deportation deferment. According to the American Immigration Council’s “Two Years and Counting: Assessing the Growing Power of DACA” published in June 2014, individuals who received DACA had the ability to work, attend school and obtain driver’s licenses.

More importantly, they became better contributors to their communities and their families. This year, Hawai‘i Community Foundation started a partnership with Unbound Philanthropy to establish the DREAM Fund to increase the number of individuals applying for DACA in Hawai‘i. Grants will focus on creating programs to educate young adults about the benefits of DACA, assisting with submission and renewing of applications. These programs will also collect data, outcomes and impacts of all outreach activities funded by the DREAM Fund grants.
