Sidney E. ’63, Laura H. and Richard J. Okashige
Sidney established the Sidney E. ’63, Laura H. and Richard J. Okashige Endowed Fund to honor her parents, who encouraged her pursuit of education throughout their lives. She wanted to emulate her parents’ generosity and love by passing on to other Punahou students who, like herself, were willing to engage in Punahou’s high standards of learning, but were not fully able to afford their tuition. In this time of once more reawakening to the less privileged, Sidney hopes the endowment will help to keep Punahou’s gates opened to them.
Laura, Richard and Punahou remarkably changed the trajectory of Sidney’s life with their unwavering financial support, and so to them she declares, “Mahalo nui loa ia oe!”
