Donated Books Inspire Scholarship Recipients
CFV Scholarship Committee Board Members Judith Dellinger and Adel Luzuriaga have generously donated copies of What Color Is Your Parachute? for each Community Foundation of the Verdugos scholarship recipient, providing students with a valuable resource as they begin their college and career journeys.
A scholarship can open the door to higher education, but having the right tools can help students make the most of the opportunities ahead. Thanks to the generosity of Scholarship Committee Board Members Judith Dellinger and Adel Luzuriaga, every Community Foundation of the Verdugos 2026 scholarship recipient will receive a copy of What Color Is Your Parachute?.
Recognized as the world’s best-selling career guide, What Color Is Your Parachute? has helped millions of readers discover their strengths, explore meaningful careers, and confidently navigate their professional journeys. By placing this resource in the hands of every scholarship recipient, Judith and Adel are investing not only in students’ education, but in their long-term success.
As the Community Foundation of the Verdugos celebrates the accomplishments of the Class of 2026, gifts like these serve as a reminder that investing in students means investing in their futures. Through the generosity of donors and dedicated volunteers like Judith Dellinger and Adel Luzuriaga, our scholarship recipients leave with not only financial support, but also the encouragement and resources to pursue meaningful careers and make a lasting impact in their communities.
