Kamehameha Schools Maui High School Senior Class Vice President Sofia Stupplebeen worked with her mother to create the very first Pink for Pauahi storefront, which raised nearly $10,000 for the Pauahi Foundation. The duo designed T-shirts, tank tops, jackets and masks for sale. The senior also developed educational projects for K-12 haumāna focusing on teaching the Hawaiian value of and kahiau (to give selflessly), and created a “Paddle for Life” poster for the Pacific Cancer Foundation. Stupplebeen’s efforts were part of her Senior Hōʻike Nui capstone project.

Kamehameha Schools Kapālama High School Co-Student Body President Taylor Moniz led her campus’ Pink for Pauahi campaign. She also created a special “Pauahi’s Angels” Zoom background for kumu, haumāna, staff and others to use to honor our founder and to raise breast cancer awareness. Here, KS Hawai‘i kindergarteners and their kumu spread their wings during a Zoom lesson.

Kamehameha Schools Hawai‘i High School Student Body President Sophia Perry (with ka lei po‘o) coordinated a social media campaign which included student takeovers of the Pauahi Foundation Instagram account, increasing its content interactions by a whopping 2,712%!

Perry’s efforts were part of her Senior Legacy Project.
