Supporting the Next Generation of CPAs

By Larry Lamb, chair, OC/LB Scholarship Committee

Congratulations to all the CPAs in our chapter who contributed in so many ways to raise funds for scholarships for the best and brightest accounting students in Orange County and Long Beach. Our committee and chapter officers will meet with the spring scholarship recipients—who will share $24,000—July 14 at the Center Club in Costa Mesa.

Scholarships of $2,500 were awarded to: Brittany Cuozzo (Chapman), Nicole Ponciano (Chapman), Nicole Lampe (Concordia), Christina Diep (CSUF), Laura Dilitkanich (SUF) and Jason Ferrer (Vanguard).

Scholarships of $1,500 were awarded to: Jose Ayala (Cerritos), Fatima Lampa (Cerritos), Quyen Huynh (Orange Coast), Qian Jing (Saddleback), Ashley Gervin (Santiago Canyon) and Francisco Cortes (Santa Ana).

There were some schools that did not qualify any recipients, such as Cypress, Fullerton CC, Golden West, Long Beach City, and Irvine CC. If you have attended any of these schools and would like to join our committee, please contact me.

A special thanks to our committee members Cheryl Collins, Scott Holt, Robin Patino, John Virchick, Terryll Walls and Kathy Lawson.
