Dutch Shuman Big Island Paniolo Scholarship
The scholarship is accepting applications for the

ranching, cattle and or horses. The fund will provide
$2,000 per year to assist with tuition. The deadline for submission is June 1st and the award will be made on

This scholarship was created in memory of Gustav "Dutch" Schuman, the third-generation leader of Schuman Carriage Co; owner of the SC ranch, Paauilo, Big Island; and former Hawaiian Home Lands commissioner. Throughout his life Dutch's true passion was with horses and cattle. While he was a successful businessman, he was a cowboy at heart. He loved every aspect of ranching, and took particular interest in encouraging younger generations to pursue their interests in animal husbandry. This scholarship fund is dedicated to preserve Dutch's legacy, and to acknowledge his numerous contributions to the people of Hawaii.
