Despite losing nearly $90 million in federal grants, the University of Hawaiʻi just smashed its own fundraising record, pulling in $734 million for 2025. That’s a 19% jump from last year! Most of this surge is thanks to UH Mānoa, and the impact is huge—especially for local medical research and support for Native Hawaiian communities. Leaders say this funding is a lifeline, fueling research that directly tackles Hawaii’s unique health challenges. With federal cuts looming, it’s inspiring to see local efforts stepping up. What do you think this means for the future of education and healthcare in Hawaii? #Education #College #Hawaii
