Applications are now being accepted for the Kāpili ‘Oihana Internship Program, which is designed to develop future leaders who recognize and embody the foundational values of our kūpuna in their communities and workplaces.

Kāpili ‘Oihana is gearing up for its 11th year 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. The launch of ImuaXchange will connect learners and employers throughout a wide selection of career opportunities, including internships, job shadows, career presentations, mentorships and employment possibilities.

Kāpili ‘Oihana aligns with Kamehameha Schools’ 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 assisted more than 660 interns including over 100 in 2018. To apply by the February 28 deadline, and to receive more information, visit the Kāpili ‘Oihana Internship Program page.
