2024 LEORA HILL SCHOLARSHIP


June 19, 2024 Deadline



About The Namesake


Leora Hill was born on August 7, 1951, in Lorain, Ohio, to Raymond Edward Fowler Sr. and Priscilla Jane Douthit. She was the fourth of six children and mirrored her values of love, family, and social responsibility in her own two children, Toni and Troy Fowler. Leora began her working life at the Ford Motor plant and discovered the importance of dignity at work and advocating for workers' rights soon on. She moved to California in 1981 with her daughter, and in 1982, she met the man who would become her best friend and life partner, Wayne Hill. They married on March 29, 1985.


Leora's most impactful career experience was with the Board of Equalization, where she spent 23 years as a California state employee. Not only was she a dedicated public servant, but her state employment led her to be a social justice activist and leader of SEIU Local 1000. Of her many accolades as a Local 1000 leader, Leora served as the chair of the Committee on Political Education (COPE) for Southern California, and President of Local 1000's District Labor Council (DLC) 723. The pride she held for her DLC and the members of her immediate community was reflected in her acts of service and the ongoing conversations with her members on matters that were important to them. She was a great leader for state employees of Los Angeles County, and she worked hard to hold elected officials accountable for quality public services.


Local 1000's African-American Committee is proud to honor such a dedicated activist by holding this essay contest as a tribute to her memory and her commitment to Labor.
