Great Scholarship Opportunity for High School Seniors
Monday, September 21, 2009 Posted by Felicia
College is becoming more and more competitive and more and more expensive! I can only imagine how much it is going to cost when it comes time for Graham to head to college (hopefully I'll be through paying off my own student loans by then)!Wendy's has a scholarship program that sounds like a great opportunity for a lot of students. It is called the Wendy's High School Heisman program and is for students who are High school seniors who have a 3.0 average or higher GPA, participate in a school-sponsored sport and contribute to their community. Students are encouraged to apply at www.wendysheisman.com. The application is currently available online! If you are a coach, high school teacher, or counselor you can also nominate students for this program. Here's even more incentive to apply, the first 41,100 applicants will receive a free Wendy's gift card in amounts ranging from $5-$50! What a wonderful way to celebrate all of the hard work your senior has put into school!
So what happens next?
2 students (one male and one female) will be chosen from each high school to win the award. From there they will compete in state and national awards. 12 national finalists will take an all expense paid trip to NYC in December and be featured on ESPN2 for the Wendy's High School Heisman Awards ceremony (airs December 13th). What a great entry for your college resume! Be on the lookout for applicants and individual school winners to be posted on October 22! Good luck!
I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Wendy’s and received a gift certificate to giveaway and to thank me for taking the time to participate.
This giveaway has ended. Congratulations to Pamela S!

There is a local girl who lives across the street from me that I found is up for this. She is sweet and always doing stuff with her family. I have seen her interact with her siblings and her parents and she never seems to get into trouble. She is also very respectful to me anytime we see each other. I feel these qualities are lost on many of today's youth and that she should be rewarded for being an example to follow.

My best friend's son is actually entered into this (because I told her to have him enter after seeing your post!). He has been a very troubled teen that really turned his life around in the past 6 months or so. After losing his dad to cancer, he really began acting out and being billigerant toward his mom and other authority figured. She put him in therapy and he has done wonders. He deserves to be recognized for this hard work.

My son is entered in this, so I'd be biased to say who should win.
September 21, 2009 1:55 PM
It's hard to follow a comment about someone's son! :)
My children are still in elementary, and I don't know many high school seniors. However, there's a boy who goes to our church who I think should win this. He has only a single-parent mom to "support" him.

I don't know anyone old enough to enter this year, but I hope that when she gets into high school my niece would be eligible.

A girl from my high school won this when I was a sophomore. I know a girl that reminds me of her very much and I think she should win. Just a good all-around student, person and athlete.
September 23, 2009 10:32 AM
Since everyone I know has children who are past the age for this, I hope a deserving student wins. I'm sure they will!
September 23, 2009 12:59 PM
No one in the family is of the correct age for this, but my daughter has a friend with a daughter that would be a perfect choice.

My neighbors home school their kids. The kids are always out playing basketball. The oldest one is very very good at basketball. I think he should get the heisman since he didn't get to play on the home team.
