The ‘Io Society is designed to increase unrestricted support to the school and is one of our biggest philanthropic opportunities. Members of the ‘Io Society make a five-year pledge of $1,000 or more annually to the ‘Iolani Fund (formerly the ‘Iolani Annual Fund).

The growth of the ‘Io Society is critically important because it provides the leadership that links some of ‘Iolani’s most cherished and longstanding values with a bold vision of how to best prepare our students for all that awaits them following graduation.

For more information on how you can join them as members, contact Mike Moses '93, Director of the Annual Fund at mmoses@iolani.org or (808) 943-2320.

Go to the Scholarships page for all the details.

Real Property

‘Iolani School gratefully accepts gifts of real estate including a personal residence, a vacation home, a condominium, a farm or ranch, an income producing rental property, or an undeveloped land.

The donor may transfer the property to ‘Iolani School during his or her lifetime (resulting in an income tax deduction) or by will at the donor's death (resulting in an estate tax deduction).

Please note: you may gift your real estate to ‘Iolani School outright, to a Charitable Remainder Trust or by a single deed in which you retain the right to enjoy your residence for the rest of your life. By reserving a life interest, you get a current income tax deduction and avoid capital gains all the while living in your own home just as you did before you made your gift to ‘Iolani School.

‘Iolani School is happy to accept gifts of fine art, jewels, and other significant items as donations.
