Here's a way to gain skills in Hilo, that may then be used to benefit everyday Puna society. One year of free community college tuition and some expenses:
Hawaiʻi Community College’s Ēlama and Hilo One scholarship programs — which provides one year of free community college to young people or older adults with “compelling barriers.”
To qualify for the scholarship, a person must be a first-generation college student (have taken less than 12 credit hours) and have financial challenges, be unemployed or work a complex schedule.
