Our mission is to provide
worthy students with college scholarships and to foster meaningful relationships
between Papa John’s and the schools and general public in the communities
in which we do business. This will occur within an environment that
respects our staff and every applicant, parent, and school administrator
with whom we have contact, either directly or indirectly.
The notion of pursuing any
worthwhile endeavor without regard to the following particulars is incomprehensible.
Specifically, Papa John’s
Scholars will create a framework that does not discriminate against, nor
allow discrimination against, any person regarding their race, creed, gender,
culture, national origin, political or religious beliefs, sexual orientation,
family structure or social background. Papa John’s Scholars will
unceasingly be an entity focused upon the inclusion rather than exclusion
of a varied and diverse base of beneficiaries, applicants, and staff.
This is quintessentially the touchstone that defines the character of the
Papa John’s Scholars program.
Papa John’s Scholars will
strive to be a consultative program that brings to the table a fairly administered
high quality scholarship program with predictable and significant outcomes.
Every form of contact or communication with Papa John’s Scholars should
demonstrate a scholarly demeanor, a penchant for detail, and an uncommonly
high level of competence, sensitivity, and concern for students and their
advocates.
Every staff member related
to the Scholars program is charged with the responsibility to be protective
of our student applicants and concerned regarding their pursuit of higher
education. There will constantly be substantial and obvious effort
to ensure that the Papa John’s Scholars program places the best interests
of our students above everything else.
We pledge that these words,
and perhaps more importantly the spirit in which they were written, will
not become lost in the fray and distraction of our normal business operations. |
