The Easter Island Foundation was founded in 1989 with the mission of building a library on Easter Island and promoting awareness of the island’s fragile heritage. This 501 (c)(3) organization works together with the Rapanui people and has achieved many of its goals:
- established the William Mulloy Library at the Museo Antropológico P. Sebastián Englert Museum on Easter Island
- provides scholarships for Rapanui students who wish to continue their education
- provides grants for research and environmental projects on Easter Island
- provides books and materials for the Indigenous Guides Association on the island
- provides books and supplies for the island schools
- sponsors International symposia about Easter Island and Polynesia
- publishes books about Easter Island and Polynesia as well as the bi-annual Rapa Nui Journal
We invite you to join with us to help preserve
this special island in the center of the world.
