Warwick residents Sydni Charette, Alexis Duncan and Rebecca Pasquarelli were each awarded a $1,000 scholarship from the Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees of Rhode Island and Bristol County, Massachusetts recently as part of the 20th Annual Dunkin’ Donuts Scholarship program. Over the course of the last two decades, Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees have provided more than $2 million in tuition assistance grants through this annual program. Scholarship recipient selection was based on excellence in academics, leadership qualities and a student’s community involvement. “We are so proud to have reached this amazing milestone with the Dunkin’ Donuts Scholarship,” said Rob Batista, Dunkin’ Donuts franchisee. “Since the start of this program, we have had the opportunity to make achieving a college education just a little more attainable for thousands of local students and their families, and we look forward to continuing that mission for years to come.” Pictured from left are Warwick Dunkin’ Donuts franchisee Rob Batista; Rebecca Pasquarelli and Alexis Duncan; and Rhode Island Lieutenant Governor Dan McKee.
