Twenty 2023 graduates from San Antonio ISD will be awarded $1,500 scholarships by C.H. Guenther & Son (CHG) to pursue careers in food service or a related industry. The recipients will be recognized at a reception Tuesday afternoon.  

Most of the 20 students awarded the CHG scholarship are seeking careers in the culinary industry, agriculture, business, hospitality and tourism, and event management.  

“CHG is a global food manufacturing company based here in San Antonio. We are excited to invest our resources in local students,” says Dale Tremblay, Chairman, Interim CEO & President. “We have formed a great partnership with SAISD and their CTE program. These scholarships will help them grow their skills in a current or emerging profession and, hopefully, return those benefits to the local community.” 

The graduates, representing 10 different campuses, were participants in SAISD’s Career and Technical Education (CTE) program. Through CTE, students choose a career cluster and participate in courses that provide them with the knowledge and skills they need for college, trade programs, and a future career. 

“We are so grateful for these scholarships, which allow our students to expand their knowledge in their chosen fields by pursuing advanced certifications and education,” said Dr. Jaime Aquino, SAISD superintendent. “We thank C. H. Guenther & Son for supporting the goals of the next generation of innovators.” 

The scholarships are part of Guenther Gives, CHG’s corporate giving program which directs resources toward food security, health and well-being, and education programs. The education component is geared toward providing opportunities for future manufacturing, business, or food and beverage industry careers.
