PepsiCo Stronger Together Scholarship

At PepsiCo, we recognize that supporting diversity and engagement is not only the right thing to do, it is the right thing to do for our business. This commitment is woven into our values and our guiding philosophy of Winning with Purpose vision, which recognizes that our company is strongest when we are a company of opportunity that embraces the full spectrum of humanity. That means both building a more diverse, more inclusive workplace, and promoting what we call courageous engagement in our company and the communities we serve.

PepsiCo’s commitment to Diversity & Engagement comes to life in the 2018 Diversity Report: PepsiCo’s Position. The report highlights examples and initiatives that advance diversity.

PepsiCo was built on the foundation that we thrive because of our diversity and we can take steps together to advance to a more united, equitable and inclusive workplace and world. Last year, PepsiCo announced our Racial Equality Journey (REJ) Initiative—investing more than $500 million dollars over the next five-years with a focus on three pillars: People, Business and Communities. For people, we are focused on increasing Black and Hispanic representation at PepsiCo through recruitment, education, internships, and apprenticeships. For businesses, we are leveraging our scale and influence across suppliers and strategic partners to increase Black and Hispanic representation and elevate diverse voices. And for our communities, we’re working to drive long-term change by addressing systemic barriers to economic opportunity and advancing economic empowerment for Black and Hispanic Americans.
