Second Chances at Summerwood = $17, 500!

At Summerwood, we believe in second chances. That’s why we created the Second Chance Scholarship as a way to financially support ambitious team members who’ve taken a shot at landing one of Taco Bell’s Live Más Scholarships, but haven’t won quite yet. We believe it takes courage just to apply!

Summerwood’s Second Chance Scholarships

Employees who apply for the Taco Bell Foundation’s Live Más Scholarship are also automatically eligible for Summerwood’s Second Chance Scholarship. After Taco Bell Foundation selects its Live Más winners — and we have a couple of those, too — we take matters into our own hands! Each year, we review every Summerwood applicant who applied for a Live Más Scholarship (and didn’t win) and enter these applicants into a lottery where we select our own deserving winners. 

Congratulations to this year’s Second Chance winners, receiving a total of $17,500!
