The Kamehameha Schools Kāpili ‘Oihana Internship Program is celebrating 10 years of providing Native Hawaiian college students with the opportunity to apply academic experience in a real-world setting by working with community organizations to increase students’ hiring potential upon graduation.

Kāpili ‘Oihana aligns with KS’ dedication to fostering enduring relationships with community partners who share our values and commitment to education and the community to improve educational systems that help develop future Native Hawaiian local and global leaders.

The program, which has assisted more than 660 interns including over 100 this year, honored the internship site supervisors from Kaua‘i, O‘ahu, Moloka‘i, Maui and Hawai‘i island who provide invaluable experience for haumāna earlier this week with a hō‘ike at Dole Cannery’s Pōmaika‘i Ballrooms.
