In an effort to help fight childhood hunger and promote education, Denny’s launched the Hungry for Education™ Scholarship program in 2011, and has since awarded more than $1.5 million in combined scholarships to elementary, high school and college students across the country. 

In September, Denny's identified the National Urban League as a strategic partner, to award scholarships to Project Ready students that submitted essays on how Denny's can help bring communities together, and one student will be selected by Denny’s to have their idea be put into action in their community.

It is my pleasure to congratulate as well as celebrate the 2022 Project Ready Denny’s Scholarship Winners. 

Please join us for the Denny’s Hungry for Education Winners’ Celebration program that will air live on Denny’s Facebook page which can be accessed by clicking this link Denny’s Facebook Page on Thursday, May 19th, @ 7pm EST.
