De La Rosa invites Corning High seniors to write an original and creative essay from 600 to 800 words reflecting on the observation by President Theodore Roosevelt that, “In a moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing.” DLR will award at least one scholarship at each school. Participants must be on track to graduate in 2011, and essays must be e-mailed, faxed or postmarked before March 1. Complete contest rules and entry forms, as well as the winning essays from 2010, are available online at www.ejdelarosa.com De La Rosa & Co. is a leader in California municipal finance. DLR has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles. President Edward J. De La Rosa created the essay competition in 2009 to mark the firm’s twentieth anniversary. Twenty high schools participated the first two years, but DLR added five additional schools because so many worthy students need financial help to finish a higher education. Guest judges include Neal Keny-Guyer, CEO of nonprofit MercyCorps; Rabbi Allen I. Freehling, executive director of the City of Los Angeles Human Relations Commission; actress Kathy Baker; and Annenberg School of Com- munication professor Gabriel Kahn, the former Los Angeles bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal.
