Three Southern Californians were named Monday to receive three-year, $35,000 grants under the Kellogg National Fellowship Program to fund self-designed plans of study of their areas of specialty.
The award winners included Esperanza Zendejas, superintendent/principal of the Westmoreland School District; James H. Johnson, director of UCLA’s Center for the Study of Urban Poverty and Kent D. Wong, attorney for the Service Employees International Union 660, in Los Angeles.
The three were among 46 fellows announced by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation under its 10th annual fellowship program, bringing to 433 the number of participants to receive financial aid.
“We need broad-based leaders who can work across different disciplines, professions and fields of interest,” said Russell G. Mawby, the foundation’s president and chief executive officer.
