Congratulations to Elena Flores, a ninth grader at Charles F. Brush High School that participated in the “Happy Birthday Dr. King!”© Birthday Card Contest and won her grade category. She received a $500 scholarship and trophy in addition to being able to attend the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday Breakfast Celebration™. The scholarship and celebration are provided by the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday Scholarship Committee of Cleveland, Ohio. They are an independent, tax-exempt, grass roots organization of volunteers who live and work in Greater Cleveland and communities beyond Northeast Ohio. The mission of the MLK Holiday Scholarship Committee is to encourage and to facilitate the celebration of the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., to pass on his legacy to the next generation, to highlight the creative genius of our youth and to honor an adult whose work in and commitment to the Greater Cleveland Community brings us closer to Dr. King’s ideal of “The Beloved Community”.
