ICYMI: Our executive director, Dr. Lawrence Scott and former recipient, and soon to be alumna of The University of Texas at Austin, Alexia Barrera stopped by News 4 San Antonio and KABB FOX 29 News, San Antonio to discuss how the Community For Life Foundation is helping Today's Learners Become Tomorrow's Leaders.

During her time at UT-Austin, she performed in the marching band (Sugar Bowl), secured victories in her mock trial competitions, worked at a law firm, and even founded and served as the President of the UT Lawtina Organization.

Alexia recounted: "The scholarship helped me in my first year... to take care of some of those costs that a lot of college students unfortunately have to go through," Barrera said. "Anything from books to tuition fees to even parking fees... helping alleviate some of that pain so that way I could go and enjoy my time and make something of myself."

Keep up the great work Alexia! Definitely a rising star in our community.

With almost a Million dollars in scholarships to more than 450 students in the greater San Antonio area, since 2001, the Community for Life Foundation is here to help Today's Learners Become Tomorrow's Leaders.

This Could Be YOU! Applications open April 1, 2026. For more information on our Foundation, or to apply, please visit www.cflfoundation.org.
