On May 8, 2026, Women’s Fund of Hawai‘i will host its 21st Annual Tea and Champagne event! We are thrilled to welcome a limited number of guests to join us at the Sheraton Waikiki Hotel.
Each registered guest receives their own personal fundraising page through which they can support Women’s Fund of Hawai'i, ask friends for support, and share the message. We’ll keep score and see who can make the biggest impact on our community. Social media dialogue is consolidated on this website and the leaderboards (Top Fundraiser and Top Team) are updated every minute.
This year, we are pleased to honor Leela Bilmes Goldstein, PhD. Leela has always had a passion for community service and philanthropy working with many varied nonprofit groups throughout the years. She joined Women's Fund of Hawai'i in 2014 as our Development Director and quickly became our Executive Director continuing with us through 2022. During her tenure she doubled our Women's Fund of Hawai'i Endowment, increased threefold the amount of grants we are able to provide annually, created strategic partnerships and commissioned the first "Status of Women in Hawai'i" report specific to the islands. She originated Girls Talk Back, a summer leadership and mentoring program, which has since gone on to achieve its own nonprofit status. Her work has brought more visibility to women and girls' issues, women's philanthropy, the grants process and the need for Women's Fund of Hawai'i's specific mission of empowering women and girls.
