Giving Back to Hawaii…
Who we are
The Advantage Kokua Committee is composed of like-minded agents and employees of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Advantage Realty committed to giving back to Hawaii. They generously donate their ideas, time and energy to make a difference in our local communities.
The Advantage Kokua committee was formed in 2016 with the mission of giving back to the community in a focused, impactful manner. After considering the multitude of worthy causes in Hawaii, the Advantage Kokua Scholarship was form in partnership with UH Foundation. Since it’s inception, Advantage Kokua has successfully funded 8 “bridge” scholarships to the University of Hawaii at Manoa and West Oahu. And, they are just getting started…
