Attorney Dominguez believes not only in giving back to the community, but also in reaching out to students who have the enthusiasm and desire to attend a college or university. This year he proudly granted two individual scholarships to: Marlytt Garrido; a young lady with a passion to make a difference in her community; she is interested in pursuing her career in political science. Elizabeth Guzman is another young lady who received a Juan Dominguez scholarship.
