The Punahou School Parent Faculty Association (PFA) is a non-profit volunteer organization made up of Punahou parents, faculty, and staff.

Volunteer to help our students navigate their ACT/SAT test day by assisting students with directions to and from test sites, controlling traffic and monitoring campus, plus staffing registration and help desks. All current K – 12 parents and guardians are invited to volunteer!
The PFA enriches parents by hosting PFA Monthly Gatherings where you can attend great Teacher Talks, enjoy a complimentary lunch, and connect with your peers. Other enriching PFA initiatives include: Brown Bag meetings, Parent Education Fairs, parent education forums and sustainability initiatives.
PFA Volunteers make things happen at Punahou! They support student activities including social functions, registration days, Chapel recognition programs, Flaming “P” and graduation activities, and, of course, Carnival!
Volunteers also support teachers through the active room/team parent program and host the Kirsch Gallery. PFA volunteers assist with the admission process, offering campus tours and welcoming new parents to Punahou through the New Families Program. Through the education and communication committees, these volunteers assist other parents during parent nights, Teacher Talks at the monthly meetings, Brown Bag lunches, Parent Education speakers and a Parent Education Fair. All parents are invited and encouraged to participate in these fun and rewarding activities.
Opportunities are available for short, one-time projects or varying levels of commitment. Experienced volunteers regularly step up to take on more responsibility through leadership roles.
