Twenty-Two Winners
in 2010 Competition
|
De La Rosa & Co. awarded $2,000
scholarships to 22 high school seniors across California in 2010. Seniors from
participating public schools submitted nearly 200 essays to this year’s Fabric
of Society essay competition based on Lance Armstrong’s observation that, “Pain
is temporary. Quitting lasts forever.”
DLR President Edward J. De La Rosa said the responses reflect the broad range
of challenges, from launching new technologies to helping an illiterate parent
navigate urban life, a new generation of Californians is facing. “Students
wrote about the vision and perseverance that they, their parents, or others in
their communities have shown when facing adversity,” De La Rosa said.
