Yes.  Great suggestion.  It should be more general.

Brian Low stated the following:

"I was thinking, this sounded a little better: Open
Source Technology for Hawaii Foundation.  This would give the name a
little more flexability.  There are a lot more than just non-profit
schools that could be utilizing our project.  There are a lot of
non-profit orginazations out there that not only work with schools but
with other places as donations"

I like the name.  You both are right in that it should be more general.  
There certainly are groups other than schools that could really benefit.  
Let's generalize.  I like how the following rolls of the tongue:

Hawaiian Open Source Technology Foundation
or
Hawaiian Foundation for Open Source Technology
