Inspire Brands Inspires Posse Scholars
Posse Atlanta has strengthened its relationship with Inspire Brands following the appointment of Inspire Brands Foundation Executive Director Stuart Brown to the Atlanta advisory board. Recently, the Roark Capital Group owned fast-food restaurant franchise strengthened its commitment to Posse Scholars by signing on as an official Career Program partner.
According to its website, Inspire Brands Foundation works to develop the next generation of leaders by creating opportunities for students to learn in a team setting, to build transformative relationships, and to learn new ways of thinking.
Like their mission as a company and foundation, Inspire Brands philanthropic efforts with Posse Atlanta speak to their commitment to serve and inspire others.
Before becoming an official Career partner, Inspire Brands hosted a workshop for Posse Scholars designed to introduce them to the company and share future opportunities for summer internships. The newest classes of Posse Scholars admitted to Texas A&M and College of Wooster participated in the workshop together with students from all six Posse partner schools.
After the workshop, in-person Scholars were still buzzing with excitement after learning of all the brands that fall under Inspire Brands, like Dunkin’ Donuts (largest coffee & donuts brand in the U.S.), Baskin Robbins (largest ice cream specialty shop chain in the world), and Buffalo Wild Wings (largest sports bar chain in the U.S.). One Texas A&M Pre-Collegiate Training Scholar said, “I didn’t know even half of those companies were with Inspire Brands. If I get an internship, I could learn all about my two favorites, ice cream and coffee, at the same time.”
This fall, Inspire Brands followed the workshop with a virtual information session for on-campus Scholars who are applying for summer internships with the company. As a Career partner, Inspire Brands will continue to market career opportunities to Scholars and alumni and will participate in programmatic events like Winter Career Day.
