On September 28, 2008, at 1:00 p.m., the Fillmore Police Department’s Citizen’s Patrol awarded a $1,000 college scholarship to local teenager Brianna Rojo.
The police volunteers at the Fillmore Police Station selected Brianna as the 2008 recipient. She is an 18 year-old Fillmore citizen who is a 2008 graduate of Fillmore High School.
Brianna has volunteered throughout the Fillmore community during her entire childhood. She was an active member of the High School ASB (Student Body), and was always there to volunteer for a community event.
The Citizen’s Patrol volunteers work hard to raise money to support local youth. Their goal is to help with the student’s college ambitions. They selected Brianna for her eager pursuit of a degree in nursing at the University of San Francisco, where she starts this week as a freshman.
Brianna wants to return to Fillmore and give back as a local nurse.
She is the epitome of a dedicated citizen and it is easy to see why she was selected.
