MESSAGE FROM THE OFFICE OF INSTITUTIONAL ADVANCEMENT

Dear Friends, COVID-19 has affected the community in many ways. In the face of this health and economic crisis, we are so grateful for our Maryknoll families who have come together to fund, volunteer, and celebrate our beloved institution. At a time of uncertainty, we found comfort and encouragement knowing that all of you care so much.

In March, we learned that many of our families had been financially impacted by the pandemic, and tuition would now be an obstacle to a Maryknoll education. Our school quickly launched the Spartan Support campaign to help provide emergency financial aid to families affected by COVID-19. With your generous support, 136 families received over $350,000 in emergency tuition assistance for the 2020-21 school year. In total, more than $3.4 million in financial aid was awarded to deserving students in need.

This Annual Report of Giving recognizes Maryknoll alumni, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends who have donated generously during the past fiscal year to lift our school community during this unprecedented time.

Thank you once again for your continued support which ensures that Maryknoll will continue to be a place that educates and nurtures global thinkers, thoughtful problem solvers, and selfless leaders.

Rooted in the Catholic faith, our students develop a true passion for learning, a growing curiosity about the world, and an excitement about making a difference at Maryknoll School.

On behalf of all of us at Maryknoll School, thank you for being a part of our community. We wish you and your family health, safety, and happiness. Together, we can overcome all things.

Noblesse Oblige,

WENDY M. CHANG Director of Institutional Advancement Interim Executive Director, Foundation for Maryknoll School

For more than 18 years, the Ho-Ching Scholarship has been awarded to Maryknoll students of good academic standing and financial need who demonstrate outstanding leadership and service to the community. Established in 2002 by Class of 1963 alumni Galen Ho and Patricia Ching Ho, the program aims to cultivate and nurture young leaders.

Kit-U Wong, ’06, a former Ho-Ching Scholar who now serves as Maryknoll’s academic dean and economics teacher, says the scholarship made a significant difference in her life. “I was very grateful to be a recipient of the Ho-Ching Scholarship, because it lessened the financial burden on my parents,” she says. “Mr. and Mrs. Ho’s dedication to living a life of Noblesse Oblige is inspirational and has definitely shaped my personal values.”

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted countless plans for 2020, and its impact has left many with feelings of isolation. Our Maryknoll alumni were no exception. With stay-at-home orders and social distancing requirements, our alumni were experiencing the loss of their close-knit community. “The biggest impact to our alumni was not being able to engage with and bring our alumni together,” said Derrick Wong ’68, President of the Maryknoll Alumni Council. “We canceled our annual alumni week bowling, golf and luau events, and quarterly kupuna gatherings. It was also disappointing having to cancel our breakfast with the senior class where we serve them breakfast; welcome them into the alumni family; and talk to them about being an alum.”

To meet these challenges, Alumni Relations Officer Gotaro Oshitari ’06 came up with innovative ways to keep our alumni community connected, including a monthly Spartan Strong web series featuring interviews of Maryknoll alumni and a virtual bingo event.

The biggest impact to our alumni was not being able to engage with and bring our alumni together.

In August, the Office of Institutional Advancement created the Spartan Support fundraising campaign, “Alumni Together”, which offers alumni the opportunity to collectively give back to the school. The Alumni Together campaign is raising critically needed funds to provide tuition assistance to families who have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Maryknoll distributed over $350,000 in additional Spartan Support financial aid to families to be used for the 2020-2021 school year.

Derrick Wong urged fellow alumni, “I would encourage those who can give to contribute to the Spartan Support fund to help our school and our Maryknoll

families during these tough economic times. If there was ever a time our school needed our help, this is it.”

Paul Chinen ’57, Foundation for Maryknoll School Board Member, knows that it will take time before our economy is back to pre-pandemic times and adds, “The economic down-turn, caused by COVID-19, has caused an enormous financial strain on many families, businesses, and institutions. Many have lost their jobs or have been furloughed.

There is a great need for financial assistance to support families, businesses and institutions. Now is the time for the Maryknoll family, faculty, staff, parents, grandparents, students, alumni, other supporters, to come together and support the Maryknoll Family.”

When this pandemic is over, the disruptions to everyday life may become faded memories, but the support that our alumni have given to our students in need will be forever remembered.

N ATA LIE PENNINGTON-YOUNG

Giving Back, One Month at a Time “I’ve always supported whatever schools my daughters attended,” says Natalie Pennington-Young, mother of Alyssa, ’24, and Yasmine, ’22. Previously, Natalie has given back by serving as a classroom volunteer. At Maryknoll, the family decided to contribute with a monetary donation.

“I love Maryknoll,” she says. “Here, they get the individualized attention they need, and anytime they have a question they can email their teachers and get help.”

The Pennington-Youngs signed up as sustaining donors, by making a recurring monthly gift. This means that Maryknoll can rely on their generosity each month. Natalie says she likes

38

FALL 2020

the convenience of being able to contribute in a way that’s affordable and easy for her family. “Even with tuition, schools still need support,” she says. “It was nice that we could give something small monthly, instead of one big chunk.”

In addition to contributing as a donor, Natalie has volunteered by sewing 170 masks for the Maryknoll Masks service project in April. Natalie says it was rewarding to see the masks go to Lanakila Pacific care home and Navian Hawaii, formerly Hospice Hawaii. This project was inspiring for her, as Navian Hawaii cared for her father during his hospice stay. “I figured it was a good way to give back and honor my dad,” she says.

Natalie is now sewing another batch of over 80 masks for the school to have on hand as needed. “If I can help someone not get COVID and be a little bit safer and take care, why not?” she says.

Peter Kirst, ’06, credits the values he learned at Maryknoll with helping him succeed in a tech career. “Empathy is a critical skill, even in the technical space,” says the San Jose, California, resident, who works as a technical program manager for NVIDIA Corporation, which develops hardware and software for computer graphics.

“When someone is not happy or pushes back, you need to hear their concern and see it as a positive, and I really think that skill came from Hawaii and Maryknoll,” he says.

Kirst started donating after he graduated from college and entered the workforce. “At first I threw $20 back to Maryknoll, and then $20 became $40,” he says. “Then I saw that they were getting really successful, and decided, instead of spreading my marbles around, I would increase my donation.”

Mrs. Marie Alina ‘57 Chun

He loves reading about the success of students and alumni in the Knoller, and says it feels good to support the school in providing a quality education to future generations.

“I think it’s important to realize that any amount is contagious,” he says. “Whether it’s $1 or $100,000, where young alumni, or alumni in general, can see the power of giving is when everybody participates. Every single bit adds up, and over time it makes a difference.”

MARYKNOLL MASKS

Maryknoll Families Donate Thousands of Handmade Masks To Protect Kupuna and Nurses from COVID-19 COVID-19 changed many things in our world, but one thing that has not changed is the spirit of kindness, charity, and service within our Maryknoll community. As a way to give back and help those in need, The Office of Institutional Advancement organized a project in May to donate handmade fabric masks to Lanakila Pacific and Navian Hawaii (formerly known as Hospice Hawaii), to protect kupuna and nurses during this pandemic.

The project began with over 70 families, alumni, and community members coming to our campus to pick up more than 300 yards of Maryknoll’s aloha print fabric. From the safety of their homes, these amazing volunteers went to work on cutting patterns and sewing protective masks. Students also made handcrafted cards and wrote hundreds of personal letters to wish our kupuna well and keep them in good spirits.

42

FALL 2020

The finished masks, cards and letters were collected at the school on May 22nd through a contactless drive-thru following social distancing guidelines to ensure everyone’s safety.

Representatives from Lanakila Pacific and Navian Hawaii were on hand to receive the more than 3,000 masks and donated items. These donations were blessed by Father EJ Resinto before being carried off and ultimately distributed to kupuna and healthcare workers. Our initial goal of 1,000 masks by the end of the project was far surpassed thanks to the efforts of everyone involved.

“We are honored and grateful by all the support from the Maryknoll community.” “The masks and letters will bring both joy and comfort to kupuna in our community.” - Rona Fukumoto, President of Lanakila Pacific “Thank you, Maryknoll families!” “We express our heartfelt

appreciation for the masks that will help keep our nurses safe.”

- Tori Abe Carapelho, President & CEO of Navian Hawaii This project was created as part of a #GivingTuesdayNow campaign, a global effort across the nonprofit sector to inspire charitable giving during the COVID-19 crisis. Maryknoll used #GivingTuesdayNow to launch this mask donation servicelearning project and to give our families a way to give back during a challenging time.

Families and alumni were excited to make a positive difference while staying safe at home. This service project brought our community together in the spirit of our school’s motto, Noblesse Oblige, which means “to whom much is given, much is expected.” After the initial donation was made, Maryknoll continued to receive hundreds of additional face masks that have been donated to various charity organizations.

REPOR T OF GIV ING 2019-2020

As this pandemic continues, Maryknoll encourages you to find your own way to give back. Reach out to elderly relatives and neighbors to make sure that they are OK; clean out your closets and donate your clothes and other items to non-profits who need them; or anything else you can think of to safely brighten someone’s day.

Students also made handcrafted cards and wrote hundreds of personal letters to wish our kupuna well and keep them in good spirits.

“SOLUTIONARY PROJECTS”

Engage Juniors in Project Learning This spring marked the launch of “Solutionary Projects,” a new program in which every Maryknoll junior researches an issue in their community, presents their findings, and takes real-world action to solve the problem.

English teacher Ryan Smith, who started the program and wrote the curriculum, says he was inspired by the Institute for Humane Education’s Solutionary Project and by the idea of challenging and trusting students to tackle big problems. “That kind of thing really makes sense to kids, and it’s empowering to teenagers, who are in tune with the problems in their world, and have the idealism to think they can fix things or know the answer.”

Mr. and Mrs. Brian J. Zweber ‘79

“The city should hire the guy — he really understands the issue.”

For the program, which was introduced in 11th Grade English classes, students select a specific issue to research and propose a solution. They create a written proposal and twominute “elevator pitch,” create a plan, write a research essay, spend at least 10 hours implementing their solution, build a website presenting their work, and deliver an eight-minute TED-style talk on their experience. English teachers Kristie Nourrie and Dallas Uti helped oversee the projects.

Even though many projects were interrupted by the pandemic and couldn’t be completed, some students managed to finish, even though it wasn’t required. These included Conor Ursulum, who took on the issue of traffic 46

safety, and Gordon Ho, who researched the city’s solid waste disposal process and solutions for diverting materials from local landfills. “His research and presentation is so impressive,” Smith says. “The city should hire the guy — he really understands the issue.”

This year, the program is getting a boost from donors Ernest Spencer, ’61, and Sara Duncan, who provided funds students can use to support their projects, as well as guidance and mentorship.

While the pandemic will continue to be a challenge for students this year, Smith says he’s asking them to “figure it out.”

“I’m telling them to treat this as another obstacle to be solved” he says. “We can’t stop working for the common good just because we have new limitations.”

MARYKNOLLSCHOOL.ORG/GIVING

Give to the Annual Fund The Maryknoll Annual Fund is a powerful way to show your support for Maryknoll School. Your gifts go directly to students in the classroom and help pay for supplies, software, arts, sports programs, teacher enrichment, student financial aid, and more.

Create an Endowed Scholarship Endowed scholarships are a lasting legacy that provide tuition assistance to future generations of students. Endowed scholarships can be named in honor of the donor or a loved one.

Establish a Planned Gift Planned gifts, including bequests in wills and IRA designations, are an opportunity to give back to Maryknoll School and at the same time take into account your own financial planning needs.

Get involved!

We have great opportunities for you to get involved! Contact us to volunteer for an event, athletics, or in the school, sit on a planning committee, or arrange for a fun campus tour for your alumni class or your parent group.

We’re here to help you The Office of Institutional Advancement works with donors and volunteers to strategically advance the mission of our school through your generosity.
