YUM! Global Newsroom: Community

In 2016, Taco Bell and the Taco Bell Foundation launched the Live Más Scholarship, a program aimed at empowering the nation’s next generation of dreamers, innovators and creators – those whose passions don’t fall into the conventional “academic” or “athletic” qualifying categories of traditional scholarship programs.

After awarding scholarships ranging from $2,500 to $25,000 to 220 youth.  Taco Bell wanted to hear from the winners themselves to see what they thought about winning a Live Más Scholarship!
