Congratulations to our APA-HI Chapter Student Scholarship recipients!
The APA Hawai‘i Chapter's UHM DURP Student Scholarship recognizes UH Manoa Department of Urban and Regional Planning students for their service to the campus community, leadership, and efforts to strengthen town-gown relations. Awardees were announced at this year’s virtual World Town Planning Day event that was held on November 5, 2021.
This year, our goal was to raise $2,000 dollars for the scholarship. Due to the generosity of our donors, we raised a combined total of $4,800! Given the success of fundraising, four students received checks for $1,200 each.
We would like to congratulate the following individuals who received this year's scholarship award and recognize their hard work:
- Kira Ramos
- Sydney Kramer
- William (Billie) Kinney Jr.
- Miles Nishioka
Funds awarded are intended to defray school expenses such as tuition and books and provide resources that will enhance student education. Preference is given to students who intend to pursue a planning career in Hawai‘i.
