Who's Zac?
Zachary was a junior at El Dorado High School in Placentia, CA. He was free spirited and creative. He took a genuine interest in people and was always there to help someone in need. He had a huge passion for skiing, classic cars, surfing, off-roading, horseback riding, boating, cooking, and drawing. He was always hungry for work and would take any jobs he could. He had a pick-up truck and wanted to expand his horizons. He bought himself a 1984 Corvette which he loved to work on. He was killed in a car accident on his way to school on June 4, 2024. This event sparked a movement known as LIVE LIKE ZAC ("LLZ"). We want to spread awareness of how he lived and encourage people to LLZ.
What is LLZ?
LLZ is a mantra to be kind, be compassionate, be creative, be genuine, and have the confidence to live that way.
LIVE LIKE ZAC CORP.
Zac showed a lot of interest in the trades. In fact he was signing up for a welding class that he would take in his senior year but didn’t make it. We recognize the importance of the trades. Trade schools are critical in today’s environment because they teach complex, hands-on, and specialized skills that are difficult to automate. They create highly adaptive workers for the modern, automated workplace, filling high-demand positions while offering a faster, debt-reducing alternative to traditional degrees. The purpose of Live Like Zac Corp. (“LLZ”) is to promote educational and vocational opportunities by providing scholarships and access to resources that foster personal and academic development. We want to award scholarships to individuals that are kind, compassionate, genuine, creative, and confident. These scholarships are deployed individually and through Career and Technical Education programs.
