5th Annual HPGS Fundraiser Honoring Emmet White

The Hawaii Pacific Gerontological Society is pleased to recognize the work of Emmet White at this year’s virtual fundraiser on November 4. Emmet exemplifies a true servant leader who placed the needs of our kupuna above all. Emmet retired from the Arcadia Family of Companies in 2018 after 23 years of service. During his tenure, he established the Arcadia Foundation which provides financial assistance to older adults in need. He expanded Arcadia’s services both on-site and in the community and was instrumental in ensuring the development of a culture of social accountability as a 501(c)3 organization to advocate for more resources for our kupuna and the professional organizations supporting them. He is married to Betty White, the former Head of School for Sacred Hearts Academy and in June of this year, celebrated 51 years of marriage. Together, they have three children and seven grandchildren.
