The Mauna Kea Coin Contest 2011 was initiated by Mauna Kea Observatories Outreach Committee (MKOOC) as an outreach effort for the people in the community. The purpose of the Mauna Kea Coin Contest is to enhance awareness of the value of the impressive mountain Mauna Kea. Based on an idea by Tiffany Rippa, and Anil Dosaj, the project was led by the chair of Mauna Kea Coin Contest Committee, Kumiko S. Usuda.
