Providing grants and scholarships is one of the mission objectives of the Easter Island Foundation. We're proud to be able to sponsor several programs at present:

The Wiegand Educational Scholarship Award

• two $2,000 awards each year for 4 years — one for a  male student and one for a female student

• renewed each year (for a total of 4 years) so long as the student is in good standing and fully enrolled at the college or university level

The Nicolas Haoa Sr. Memorial Scholarship

• $3,000 (given each year)

The Annual EIF Award

$3,000 (given each year)

The Directors' Award

$3,000 (given each year)
