What's it all about?
With your studies, job, sports and club activities, and volunteer work, you accomplish more each day than some people do in a week. That’s why the Wendy’s Classic Achiever® Scholarship Awards Program exists: to recognize graduating Canadian high school students like you who excel in academics, extracurricular activities and community service. And to encourage you to keep up the good work as you advance to college or university.
A commitment to young people
Wendy’s founder Dave Thomas had a strong belief in young people, and made an ongoing commitment to support their advancement and development. He encouraged them to pursue their aspirations to improve themselves and their communities.
With this philosophy in mind, Wendy’s Restaurants of Canada created the Wendy’s Classic Achiever® Scholarship Awards Program to recognize Canadian high school students in their graduating year who have not only worked hard, but have also given back to their communities; individuals who define the term "Classic Achiever."
“At Wendy’s, we’ve always had a strong belief in supporting the communities in which we live and work,” says Ron Baugh, Senior Vice-President, Wendy’s Restaurants of Canada. “We also believe the foundation of any healthy community is young people. Those of us who live and work with these vibrant individuals in our neighborhoods and schools take great delight in their passion, drive and enthusiasm – whether it’s for athletics, volunteer work, part-time jobs, extracurricular activities or yes, even academics. We feel honoured to be able to celebrate the achievements of young adults across Canada – and the Wendy's Classic Achiever® Scholarship Awards is our way of congratulating them on a job well done."
