Honolulu, HI, October 16, 2026 —
The University of Hawai‘i Athletics is conducting its annual Giving Week in Honolulu, encouraging community members to support student-athletes. The initiative directs donations toward several areas, including recruitment, scholarships, name, image and likeness (NIL) opportunities, academic initiatives, training equipment and nutrition.
The effort is intended to support athletes and help them perform at their highest level and remain in the state, according to the information provided about the campaign. No specific fundraising target or donation total was provided, so the scale of the effort cannot be determined from the available details.
The campaign identifies a range of priorities rather than a single use for contributions. Those areas span recruiting and scholarships, academic support, NIL opportunities, equipment and nutrition. The information provided does not explain how funds are divided among these priorities or whether donors can designate their contributions for a particular area.
Further logistical details were not provided. The dates and duration of this year’s Giving Week, the methods for donating and the names of any participating organizers or spokespeople were not specified. No statements from university officials or student-athletes were included.
The university’s athletics program describes Giving Week as an annual effort. The available summary does not provide information about previous campaigns, participation levels or outcomes, and therefore does not establish how this year’s effort compares with earlier years.
