First Scholarship Recipient Breaks Barriers | Mesa News
Description
Travis Vasquez, a South Mountain Community College student and first-generation athlete, just became the first-ever recipient of the Guardian Law Group Future Scholarship — a $1,000 lifeline for young people impacted by the justice system. Balancing school, sports, and work, Travis overcame a tough childhood in foster care, finding support through community programs and basketball. Now pursuing a communications degree, he hopes to inspire others with his story — and plans to use the scholarship to cover daily expenses while keeping his head up and his goals in sight.
