Hawaii Community Foundation Makes Award to SECOH

HONOLULU, O`AHU -- The Hawaii Community Foundation (HCF) awarded SECOH a $225,000 "Persons-in-Need" Grant from the May Templeton Hopper Fund to provide tuition assistance for adult day care at SECOH. This is the third year of a three year grant period in which the funds are being distributed.

Persons ages 65 and over who would benefit from adult day care and demonstrate financial need are eligible to apply for tuition assistance. SECOH has openings for adults needing day care Monday-Saturday at both its Founder's Center located in Kahala/Kaimuki and its Central Oahu Community Center in Wahiawa.
