Last Chance to Apply for Cumberland Farms College Scholarships.

Thursday, Dec. 15 is the last day for graduating seniors, who live within 30 miles of a Cumberland Farms location and who play to attend college, to apply for a $1,000 "Cumberland Farms Believe and Achieve" scholarship.

Thursday is the deadline for high school graduating seniors (who will attend college full time in the fall) to apply for the "Cumberland Farms Believe and Achieve" scholarship" in the amount of $1,000.

“It is important that we support educational opportunities for young people" said President of Cumberland Farms Retail Division Ari Haseotes in a press release issued last week. “The Believe and Achieve scholarship is our investment to the next generation of community leaders.” 

Since its inception, Cumberland Farms has awarded more than $500,000 to talented and ambitious high school graduates across its service area. With the help of the scholarship, students offset a variety of expenses, including tuition, books, and room and board.

Cumberland Farms, family owned for more than 70 years, consists of a network of convenience stores across 11 states which, they say, reflects the values of three generations of providing customers with value, convenience and unparalleled service - whether you're buying a cold Chill Zone drink, a hot or iced cup of Farmhouse Blend Coffee, or filling the gas tank.

"Medfield is a town that embraces its hard-working students and dedicated teachers," said Kate Ngo, Marketing Manager for Cumberland Farms. "A sense of strong educational support and school spirit is what makes us excited to be a part of the Medfield community."
