Larry Wong was a high school teacher in the Norwalk-La Mirada School District for 35 years. In addition to teaching government and history, he has organized educational field trips and made it possible for thousands of students to visit Washington, D.C. and east coast historical sites. Mr. Wong has also raised funds for hundreds of college scholarships given to students in this school district.. This scholarship is named for Larry Wong after his death in 2007. He worked countless hours for the students of this community both before and after his retirement from teaching. It is the desire of the LWAHF that his legacy of giving be carried on through this scholarship.
