Students were selected from more than 1,500 applicants based on their academic record, demonstrated leadership, and proven commitment to their school and local community. Dunkin’ and its franchisees in the greater Philadelphia-area will award these recipients with a $2,000 academic scholarship to pursue an undergraduate degree at an accredited two or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school of their choice in the fall.
To date, the Dunkin’ Philadelphia Regional Scholarship Program has awarded $450,000 in
scholarships to 275 outstanding high school seniors and college students. The program was
founded in 2009 by Dunkin’s Philadelphia-area franchisees as a way to ease the financial
burden of college for students throughout the region.
“On behalf of my fellow franchisees, we are honored to award these 25 exceptional students with the 2020 Dunkin’ Regional Scholarships,” said Perry Shah, local Dunkin’ franchisee and Philadelphia regional advertising committee chairman. “We are so proud to see the scholarship program continue to grow each year and support students in our local
communities. It is an honor to have the opportunity to further students’ educational goals and we look forward to the amazing achievements of these future leaders.” To celebrate their 2020 Dunkin’ Regional Scholarship, each of the student recipients will enjoy
a special visit at their residence from the Dunkin’ Community Cruiser.
