DREAM BIG with K-MAC and Taco Bell!

K-MAC Scholarship

K-MAC Enterprises, Inc. has established a competitive college scholarship program for its employees. The foundation and continued success of K-MAC Enterprises has always been hard-working and dedicated employees. This scholarship program is dedicated to all current employees that are deemed eligible by having been employed by K-MAC Enterprises, Inc. for 6 months as of August 1 of the year of application. It is managed by a Scholarship Committee appointed by K-MAC management on an annual basis.

Live Mas Scholarship

At K-MAC/Taco Bell, we believe all youth should dream big and have someone invest in those dreams. That's why the Taco Bell Foundation created the Live Mas Scholarship - to help ambitious, passionate young adults in our communities and our very own restaurants pursue their unique educational dreams.

In 2019, the Taco Bell Foundation awarded more than $4 million in scholarships to youth (ages 16 to 24) for post high-school education. Scholarships were awarded across three programs: $1 million to first-time consumer recipients, $750,000 to first-time restaurant employee recipients, and more than $2 million to help previous scholarship recipients continue along their educational journey.

Graduate for Mas

In 2014, the Taco Bell Foundation and Get Schooled partnered up to launch Graduate for Mas, a program dedicated to empowering youth to make a personal commitment to graduate high school and to follow their passions and educational dreams. The Graduate for Mas program was developed to create an online community that offers youth digital tools and resources. By staying active, youth earn points for prizes, rewards and educational support, including scholarships and mentoring resources. To date, more than 600,000 teens have made the promise to graduate!
