Smithfield-Luter Foundation Partners with Johnson & Wales University to Establish Scholarships SMITHFIELD, Va., Nov. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- The Smithfield-Luter Foundation announced today that it has contributed $25,000 to Johnson & Wales University to establish a scholarship fund for Smithfield Foods, Inc. employees' children and grandchildren. The Smithfield-Luter Foundation will contribute $25,000 annually to the university for the next three years, totaling $100,000 over a four-year period. Founded in 2001 by Smithfield Foods chairman and chief executive officer Joseph W. Luter, III, the Smithfield-Luter Foundation is a non-profit organization, that provides scholarships for the dependent children and grandchildren of full-time or retired employees of the Smithfield Foods, Inc. family of companies. The amount of each scholarship is determined by the university's financial aid office and does not exceed the cost of tuition, course-related fees, books, supplies and equipment for the student. "The Smithfield-Luter Foundation is proud to offer Smithfield Foods employees' family members the opportunity to attend Johnson & Wales, a world- class culinary institution," said Mr. Luter, who is chairman of the foundation. "Johnson & Wales' reputation for being the premier culinary institute in the country makes it an ideal choice for the Smithfield-Luter Foundation. "This ties in perfectly with Smithfield's long-time support of the culinary arts, such as our sponsorship of the James Beard Foundation. Also, the Johnson & Wales campuses are near several of our company's facilities and are in our major markets." Known as America's Career University(R), Johnson and Wales offers it 15,000-plus students the opportunity to pursue a career education in business, hospitality, culinary arts, or technology. Johnson & Wales' five domestic campuses are located in Providence, Rhode Island; Charleston, South Carolina; Norfolk, Virginia; North Miami, Florida; and Denver, Colorado. The Charlotte, North Carolina campus opened in September. "The university is very pleased to be entering into a partnership with the Smithfield-Luter Foundation in the development of young men and women, many who will be entering the foodservice industry upon graduation," said Vincent Saele, vice president of Johnson & Wales University. "Johnson & Wales is pleased to be selected as one of the few universities in the United States to participate in this scholarship program. With annualized sales of $10 billion, Smithfield Foods is the leading processor and marketer of fresh pork and processed meats in the United States, as well as the largest producer of hogs.
