Education has the power to change the course of a life, a family, and future generations. This scholarship was created to honor the memory and legacy of Cheryl W. Goo-Rego, whose kindness, resilience, and love for her family continue to inspire us every day. Through this scholarship, we hope to recognize students who demonstrate character, perseverance, and a desire to make a positive difference in their communities. Our goal is not only to help ease the financial burden of higher education, but also to encourage recipients to build lives of purpose, compassion, and service. We believe that one act of generosity can create a lasting legacy, inspiring future generations to give back and help others pursue their own dreams.
