Larissa Luu reviews her invitation to the 2008 Young Heroes awards, to be held at the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia on Aug. 21. She was chosen for the grand prize for her leadership of the Educate Cambodia project, which raised $30,000 to build a school in Cambodia. Her father, Anh Luu, looks on.

Luu said she plans to attend the University of Pennsylvania and hopes to become a surgeon.

"I've always been interested in the medical field, and I want to do something worthwhile," she said.

When she goes to Philadelphia next month to accept the award, her entire family will be there looking on. Her brother, serving in the Air Force in New Mexico, will try to make it home, and her sister, an optometry student in Philadelphia, will be there along with her parents and Conn.
