Tommy Thomason Scholarship Fund

 

Orville Glen "Tommy" Thomason was Loara's first principal, and his educational legacy and influence stretches over his 97-year life span.  Tommy was born on December 5, 1907 in Adrian, Missouri, then moved to LaVerne, California in 1918, where he starred in football, basketball, track and baseball at Bonita High School and La Verne College.  Tommy began his career as teacher and coach in Baldwin Park, Claremont and at his alma mater, Bonita High School.  Tommy's Christian principles called him into work with the YMCA, first in Hollywood and then Anaheim, where he served as General Director for six years.  In 1953, Tommy returned to education as an Administrator at Anaheim High School, Fremont and Crescent Junior High Schools.  His final position was at Loara High School, where he served as the first Principal from 1962 to 1973, when he retired. He died peacefully in his sleep on Sunday, December 12, 2004.

 

In September 2017, the LSAA began accepting donations for the Tommy Thomason Scholarship Fund, and we have received numerous contributions.  Details with respect to scholarship requirements, validation of information, the scholarship amount, and the Application Form and deadline will be posted in the near future.   

 

You can donate at any time on line by clicking here, or by mailing your check to LSAA, P.O. Box 9397, Anaheim, CA 92812-9397.  Thanks in advance for keeping Tommy's Legacy alive!

For those of you who have been participating in Shoparoo, we received this notice from them:

Thank you for being a part of Shoparoo. In our time together, the Shoparoo community has helped raise over $4,000,000 for our local schools! We wanted to make you aware that, due to a shift in strategy, the Shoparoo app will no longer be available as of July 15, 2020.

The most important thing we want you to know is we will still honor all qualified payouts for the 2019-2020 school year.

In addition to individual school payouts that qualify, as part of our commitment to education, we will be making a donation to adoptaclassroom.org in the value of all unassigned Roo points. During this critical time where teachers and students are adjusting to distance learning, the contribution to adoptaclassroom.org will provide funding for the necessary tools and materials, and we are happy to help with this cause.

For those with questions or comments, please direct them to our customer support team or by contacting us directly inside the app under Questions and Feedback in the Profile section

We're grateful for your participation over the years. If you’d still like to submit receipts from recent purchases to earn rewards, please check out our Receipt Hog app.

Thank you and we’ll miss you,

The Shoparoo Team
