"We know how difficult it can be for some students to afford college. That's why we are proud to have a program that can make the cost of college a little bit easier for these families," said Ari Haseotes, president of Cumberland Farms Retail Division. "The Believe and Achieve scholarship is a way for us to give back to the communities that patronize our stores."
Information about the Believe and Achieve Scholarship program, including entry criteria and deadlines, is available online at www.cumberlandfarms.com/doinggood, as well as in all Cumberland Farms store locations.
