2024 Board of Directors Election
Statements were submitted by candidates to fill three (3) open seats on Hawaii State FCU’s Board of Directors. Each position carries a three-year term and begins in June 2024. Board members serve on a voluntary basis and are responsible for ensuring that the credit union serves the financial needs of its members. The Board works with the credit union’s management team to develop quality products and services to meet this goal. The order in which the candidates appear was determined by random draw and does not indicate appropriateness for election.

It’s important to recognize and appreciate everything our Hawaii teachers do for our kids. That’s why we created the Investing in Education Grant. The money can be used to buy classroom supplies, books, electronics and more.
