Separately, Canton, Mass.-based Cumberland Farms has announced that the second year of its Believe & Achieve Scholarship will begin October 1, 2007. The program provides individual $1,000 scholarships to eligible graduating high school seniors living in the company's service areas.
The program is open to students who live within 30 miles of any Cumberland Farms outlet in the Northeast and Florida and who are entering college in the fall of 2008. The scholarship program is also open to children of Cumberland Farms employees. While the initiative takes academic performance into account, the award also considers the student's financial need.
Cumberland Farms CEO Lily Bentas said, Last year we were able to help 79 motivated students, by assisting in the costs of paying for books or tuition. We're looking forward to being able to help more again this year.
