Informing the Legislature that on July 9, 2025, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB933 SD2 HD1 CD1 (ACT 310).

This bill (SB933, now Act 310) provides $50 million in state funding for nonprofit organizations in Hawaii that have lost or are at risk of losing federal funding. It directly affects health centers, child care providers, social service agencies, and homeless service programs that serve populations impacted by federal funding cuts. The law establishes a committee of lawmakers to select grantees and contract with Aloha United Way to manage the distribution of funds, requiring nonprofits to document federal funding reductions and how grant money will address service disruptions. The funding supports fiscal year 2025-2026 and aims to maintain critical community services during the federal funding freeze.
