Red Robin Gourmet Burgers Endowed Scholarship

Purpose:
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers® has been the Gourmet Burger expert since 1969 when the first Red Robin® restaurant opened in Seattle. Now, with more than 450 restaurants across the U.S. and Canada, Red Robin offers craveable, high-quality menu items including innovative, signature Gourmet Burgers and Chicken Sandwiches, as well as salads, entrees, and signature Bottomless Beverages™ all made with fresh, Honest-to-Goodness® ingredients. Red Robin was founded on four core values, which are still alive in restaurants today. These core values are at the foundation of every decision we make from creating craveable Gourmet Burgers to choosing new restaurant locations. They also are the foundation for how we treat our Team Members, Guests, and the communities we serve. The core values are honor, integrity, continually seeking knowledge, and having fun.
