Lor Family

The Chhin Lor Memorial Scholarship, funded by the Lor Family, honors the legacy of Chhin Lor, a Cambodian refugee who valued education and perseverance. Chhin's life was marked by significant challenges, including surviving labor camps and rebuilding his life in the United States after fleeing the Khmer Rouge. This scholarship aims to support high school seniors in Massachusetts who are first-generation college students, encouraging them to overcome adversity and pursue their educational goals. The scholarship reflects Chhin's belief in the transformative power of education and is designed for students who demonstrate resilience, integrity, and a commitment to learning.
