The Ninety Nine Restaurants Honors Providence Youth with 9th Annual Boys & Girls Club Scholarship Award

The Ninety Nine Restaurants announced the seven winners of their 9th Annual Boys & Girls Club Scholarship Awards. Cesar Pimentel, a member of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Providence and Classical High School senior, was awarded the scholarship representing the state of Rhode Island. The award is given to an outstanding youth who has shown an exemplary commitment to the Boys & Girls Club, as well as a strong performance in school and community involvement.

Pimentel, a Providence resident, will receive a $1,000 scholarship to put towards his college degree. Pimentel graduated from Classical High School in 2016, and will begin college in the fall at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst.

Seven $1,000 Boys & Girls Club Scholarship Awards were distributed to well-deserving high school students across New England and New York, continuing to showcase the Ninety Nine’s commitment to the communities in which their 106 restaurants serve. This year’s Annual Boys & Girls Scholarship Awards mark the 19th year that Ninety Nine has partnered with the Boys & Girls Club, and the remarkable relationship continues to grow.

“We are passionate about the Boys & Girls Clubs and education at the Ninety Nine, and take pride in being able to provide scholarships to seven deserving high school students,” said Charlie Noyes, President of the Ninety Nine. “These youths have not only demonstrated commitment to their local Boys & Girls Clubs, but also to their communities in which they live, and we wish them the best of luck with their future educational endeavors.”
