Larry Flores


In June of 1994, Larry Flores became the first in his family to graduate from high school. An accomplishment second only to the fact that, thanks to help from the community through the Scholarship Foundation, Larry became the first to attend college.
Facing some tough circumstances, Larry set his mind to beating the odds.
Described by his high school teachers as a role model, Larry has taken his leadership qualities back to those who need a positive example in their lives. While a student at UCSB, Larry works as a tutor, and visits as a speaker at local junior and senior high schools.
When people are labeling the teens of the '90s as "Generation X," and as kids who have no vision for the future, Larry is on Santa Barbara high school campuses giving kids hope and an example for their future.
