Chick-fil-A to Invest $19 Million in Employees' Education in 2021
Chick-fil-A will invest $19 million in restaurant employees’ continuing education this year, awarding college scholarships to 7,492 team members in 44 states, Washington, D.C., and Canada. Employees can apply their scholarships to any area of study at any accredited institution, furthering Chick-fil-A’s long-standing commitment to education and helping restaurant team members achieve their academic dreams.

To celebrate the scholarship recipients, Chick-fil-A invited 12 employees to join what they thought was a virtual retreat on March 17. During the virtual meeting, Chick-fil-A Chairman and CEO Dan Cathy surprised each of them with a $25,000 True Inspiration Scholarship. The 12 True Inspiration Scholars were also given laptops to use as they continue their studies. In addition, throughout March and April, local Chick-fil-A franchise operators are awarding $2,500 Leadership Scholarships to 7,480 team members.
