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 Annual EIF Award

 

• $3,000 (given each year)

 

 

The Directors' Award

 

• $3,000 (given each year)

 


 

PLEASE NOTE

 

The Weigand Education Scholarship Award is no longer available, but we wish to extend our deep appreciation to the Weigand family for its generosity in supporting our scholarship program for the past four years — and we encourage any persons or organizations interested in helping to keep our scholarship program alive to contact the Easter Island Foundation.

 

 

Other past scholarships include the Nicolas Haoa Sr. Memorial Award, which has been given five times since 2005.
