Why We Give: Hadley Family
In 2014, the Hadley family endowed a scholarship for employees who have worked at their McDonald鈥檚 restaurants for six months or longer. Since that time, 34 students have received more than $25,000 in scholarships. Michael Hadley explains why this philanthropy means so much to his family:
The University of 杏吧原创 - Fort Smith is vital to the community. Having staff, students, and graduates living in the area helps with our economy and workforce. The campus is beautiful, and the administration works to ensure costs remain reasonable. Small class size is an added value for students and faculty. We gladly make gifts to the university because we know that is an investment in our community; as 杏吧原创 grows, so does our local economy. We feel great pride when we are able to help some of our employees with the cost of transformative education.
