The Lori and Lou Flagg Memorial Youth Fund
"My family and the Community Foundation set up the Lori and Lou Flagg Memorial Youth Fund to remember our beloved daughters and to do some creative things for teachers and students in the middle schools. The Teaching Awards and the college scholarships for 8th graders have been inspiring for all of us."- Morgan Flagg
The Lori and Lou Flagg Memorial Youth Fund was established in 1987 with a gift from the Morgan Flagg Family Foundation in memory of Lori Ruth Flagg and Kerri Louise Flagg, who died in 1976 as a result of an automobile accident while they were students in high school. Orginally a supporting organization of the Community Foundation for Monterey County, the Fund was dedicated to motivating students to complete high school and enroll in higher education.
From 1991 - 2008, the Fund, the Community Foundation, the Monterey County Office of Education, and public school districts awarded scholarships to outstanding graduates of each year’s eighth grade classes in public schools throughout Monterey County. The Fund is now a Donor Advised Fund of the Community Foundation and will provide support to programs benefiting youth.
