Hawai‘i Community Foundation’s capacity to serve the community is tied directly to its ability to preserve and enhance the financial assets that it stewards. The Foundation has established a relationship with The Vanguard Group, Inc. for the management of its corporate endowment. Assets held in trust are managed by one of the Foundation’s corporate trustee partners: Bank of Hawaii, First Hawaiian Bank and Central Pacific Bank. A committee composed of Board Members and assisted by staff, as well as an independent investment monitor, oversees investment activities of the Foundation to ensure that the needs of the community can continue to be met.
