Ralph Ajifu FFA Memorial Foundation provides support to underprivileged or disadvantaged hawaii agricultural education students in the state of hawaii. The organization will support local, young people that want to become farmers in hawaii by providing educational grants or scholarships to students lacking sufficient financial means to seek educational opportunities, enroll in curriculums, and attend events affiliated with the hawaii FFA (future farmer of america) locally and with the national FFA across the USA. The organization will also develop and operate local events designed to encourage local, young people to pursue a farming career in hawaii. Fundamentally, the organization seeks to spread aloha (love and fellowship) and kokua (to help others) in cultivating and caring for hawaiian natural resources.

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
