Every year the Outrigger Duke Kahanamoku Foundation gives grants to teams and events that help develop Hawaii’s ocean athletes and perpetuate Duke’s legacy through water safety, and through water sports and volleyball. 2024 Grant Applications are closed. Applications for 2025 are due by January 12, 2025.
Team grants are awarded to Hawaii teams who compete in the sports that Duke played and loved: Swimming, Surfing, Canoe Paddling, Kayaking, Diving, Water Polo, Sailing & Volleyball. Successful applicants often make a request for their team to compete in a specific event in or outside of Hawaii, or to develop youth through a team’s season. Grants generally range from $1,000 to $3,000 each.
Grant applications are now open.
