HONOLULU–Hawaii Central FCU Chairman Neil Shimogawa, alongside fellow board members and the executive management team, visited the Chaminade University Campus to present a $5,000 check to Chaminade University President Lynn Babington.
The board also had an opportunity to take a tour of the campus with a focus on the nursing program.
“With our Harkness branch at the Queen’s Medical Center, we have become intimately and acutely aware of increasing needs in the healthcare professions,” said Hawaii Central FCU President Drake Tanabe. “The COVID-19 Pandemic was rough for our members at Queen’s, and the recent report by the Healthcare Association of Hawaii (HAH) confirms what we have witnessed, firsthand.”
“Helping to support our community is a huge priority for Hawaii Central,” said Shimogawa. “Hawaii Central is always looking for ways to give back to our community, and working with Chaminade came naturally.”
