Honoring the Legacy of Our Co-founder
James W. McLamore, BURGER KING
Co-Founder
BURGER KING
co-founder James W. McLamore believed in community service and philanthropy, and
had a vision to build brighter futures by promoting education in our communities.
This philosophy and vision inspired the creation of the BURGER KING
Scholars Program more than a decade ago, and allowed for the merger of the BURGER
KING
McLamore Foundation and the HAVE IT YOUR WAY
Foundation in 2005. The merger allowed Mr. McLamore's vision to come to fruition
by enabling the BURGER KING
system to make a greater impact in the communities it serves.
In support of the various scholarship opportunities provided through the HAVE IT
YOUR WAY
Foundation, the McLamore Family Foundation established a category within the BURGER
KING
Scholars Program called the James W. McLamore WHOPPER™ This scholarship awards recipients $50,000 each for the fulfillment
of their education and professional goals, keeping Mr. McLamore’s vision alive.
We thank the McLamore Family and the McLamore Family Foundation for their continued
support.
