Foundation Scholarship
At Domino’s, we are committed to supporting the local communities in which we operate. We know that pizza can’t solve all the world’s problems, but it can bring a small slice of joy to a bad day, and in these times of extreme stress and uncertainty that’s never been more important. That’s why our community-based programs like ‘Feed the Knead’ and “Mind & Meals” are available across Australia.
We are honoured to be able to expand our support through the provision of funding for a scholarship to a Charles Sturt University. Looking forward to supporting the scholarship recipient in pursuing business and leadership opportunities. We believe tomorrow’s leaders will help shape our local communities and nation.
