HIGH SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) Provided Its 16Th Annual Scholarship Program to Local High Schools

ILWU LOCAL 13, 63, 94, PENSIONERS & ILWU CREDIT UNION HIGH SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM The International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) provided its 16th annual Scholarship Program to local High Schools. This program awards up to three students from each participating high school with $500 scholarships to help with school tuition costs. Each scholarship recipient wrote an essay on Harry Bridges, the founder of the ILWU, in which they recognized his integrity and the value of his struggle to help the working class. These students are real heroes who have shown they can persevere and continue with their studies. The Scholarship Committee would like to thank all the educators, ILWU members and staff whose Harry Bridges efforts make this program a success. We congratulate all the recipients of the 2017 ILWU Scholarship Program Bishop Montgomery High School Palos Verdes Peninsula High School Anizza Fuentes - Adela Henry - Haya Rabadi Alyssa Condon - Eudora Lee - Gabor Nemeth Carson High School Phineas Banning High School Daisy Boeckmann - Samantha Leyva - Caroline Padilla Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo High School Dyan Alejandre - Destiny Galvan - Ricardo Martinez Port of Los Angeles High School Javier Camacho - Darius Candler - Nikko Lumaban Lakewood High School Sebastian Guzman - Alyssa Medrano - Anna Vidovich Briana Bautista - Eleina Beltran - Crystal Gutierrez Robert A.
