Dunkin’ awarded a total of $50,000 to the 25 recipients who were selected based on their academic records, demonstrated leadership skills, and overall commitment to their schools and local communities.

“I think it’s really cool for Dunkin’ to host an event like this when everyone is social distancing, this is a bigger event than I thought it was going to be” said Ethan.

“It’s great to be able to have money for college and help me purse my first year.”

Since its inception in 2009, Dunkin’ has awarded more than $450,000 in scholarships to 275 outstanding high school seniors and college students.
