KFC Foundation Scholarship

The KFC Foundation Scholarship offers up to $20,000 in scholarships for employees of KFC restaurants in the U.S. participating in the KFC Foundation’s Annual Donation Program. Scholarships can be used to attend a two- or four-year college, trade school, or graduate school for the 2025-2026 academic year. The program is competitive, and not every applicant will receive a scholarship. Additional opportunities include the Janet L. Kuhn Scholarship, which doubles the award amount for one recipient, and the GED Graduate Scholarship Guarantee, offering $5,000 to those who earn their GED through the KFC Foundation.
