Disponible en: Español

Senior Somaly Taing of Eisenhower Senior High School has been named a 2012 finalist for the Linda Lorelle Scholarship Fund (LLSF).

According to the LLSF website, the scholarship targets students from challenging backgrounds who have demonstrated potential through a variety of factors such as GPA and student involvement.

Since its inception, the Scholarship Fund has awarded more than $2,500,000 in scholarships to more than 280 students. The LLSF has open enrollment once a year for 11th grade in high school students in Harris and Fort Bend counties of Texas.

The LLSF was founded by Linda Lorelle who is best known as an Emmy Award-winning journalist who anchored the evening news for nearly 17 years at Houston’s NBC affiliate, KPRC-TV.

Semifinalists from across the Houston area will attend the LLSF 21st Anniversary Awards Ceremony later this year.
