About this Event
You are cordially invited to a Monte Carlo themed casino night under the stars for the Walls Family Scholar Athlete Foundation's Annual Fundraiser and Awards Gala on October 5, 2024. The inaugural fundraising Gala will feature Keynote Speaker Olympic Medalist and humanitarian Dr. John Carlos, generate the funds needed for programming and scholarships, bring awareness to prostate cancer, and celebrate the life and legacy of Founder Larry D. Walls, Esq. as well as honor respected inspirational leaders and recognize scholarship recipients.
TWF was established in 2006 by Larry Dean Walls, Esq. to recognize and reward scholars and athletes who demonstrate exceptional academic ability and strong leadership skills in their communities. This 501(c)(3) charitable organization has three primary objectives:
- To identify and support scholar athletes with collegiate potential from historically underrepresented communities.
- To promote academic and athletic excellence throughout their high school careers.
- To provide recognition, encouragement, and scholarships to exemplary students.
In August 2023 Mr. Walls lost his 14 year battle with prostate cancer. Since its inception TWF has recognized and awarded over 50 scholar athletes, and in 2024 TWF recommitted to the legacy of Mr. Walls by expanding the scope of the scholarship awards to include the Larry Dean Walls Legal Scholar Award to recognize exemplary young women from historically underrepresented communities desiring to pursue a legal career. This additional commitment to inspire the scholarly pursuits of tomorrow’s leaders is based on the need to create opportunities to support diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives for future professionals.
With these goals in mind and with your support, TWF has made it easy for you to join our mission whether you chose to donate, sponsor or underwrite a scholarship as an individual or organization, and of course donations in any amount are appreciated!
We thank you sincerely for your support, and hope you will help us expand the legacy of TWF Founder, Larry Dean Walls, Esq.
