Culinary Arts

Scholarship

Since 1998, the Culinary Arts program at Spokane Community College has been awarding the Hector Boiardi scholarship. The scholarship is available only to Culinary Arts students enrolled in classes full-time.

The scholarship was set up as an endowment from the family of the late Hector Boiardi, founder of the popular Chef Boy-Ar-Dee food line. The award is based on financial need as well as academic performance. A family spokesman noted that Hector Boiardi had a lifelong interest in helping students, adding "it was natural for his family to perpetuate this by establishing a source of financial aid for students."

Scholarships are awarded beginning fall quarter and are renewable for winter and spring quarter. For more information, please contact Janet Breedlove at (509) 533-7283 or by email at JBreedlove@scc.spokane.edu.
