The Elsie S. Yoshizawa Hotta Scholarship Fund was established in December 2002 with gifts from Mr. Shoma Hotta and family and the friends of Elsie S. Yoshizawa Hotta. The purpose of the scholarship is to honor the life of Elsie S. Yoshizawa Hotta, beloved wife, mother and grandmother and outstanding and devoted teacher, through scholarship awards for graduates of Baldwin High School interested in teaching. The HCF will give preference for recipients who were awarded in the immediate prior year if such recipient continues to meet the eligibility requirements and is in good academic standing. The donor requires the applicants who are graduates of Baldwin High School; and attend a four-year college or university. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Hawai'i Community Foundation for more information.
