Join us on Tuesday, May 19th, as we celebrate PAAC's 72nd Anniversary at our Annual Gala, A Global Affair.  The event will honor Dr. Lynn Babington, president of Chaminade University of Honolulu, with the Paul S. Bachman Award for her work in strengthening Hawaiʻi’s relationships across the Pacific, expanding access to higher education for Pacific Island students, and aligning academic programs with workforce and community needs throughout the region.   

A Global Affair continues to serve as PAAC's largest fundraiser to support our statewide global education programs.  Your contributions directly help PAAC continue our important work to empower Hawaiʻi's youth with the skills and knowledge to navigate our deeply connected world.

The gala will feature exclusive silent auction items from around the world, the highly anticipated WorldQuest trivia competition, a hosted bar, validated parking, and the great company of Hawaiʻi’s prominent supporters of PAAC.

Registration will close on Thursday, April 30th.
