(Aurora, CO) - CCA Student Alexander Cardenas has been awarded a $1,000 scholarship from the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, one of the most recognized and respected corporate-sponsored scholarships in America.

Cardenas, a 19-year-old accounting major, is entering his second year at CCA and will receive the funds in time for the upcoming fall semester.

Through the Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship Program, the Foundation awards a total of 400 scholarships annually to students attending higher-education institutions granting two-year degrees and who demonstrate academic success and have engaged in community service within the past 12 months.

The Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship Program gives support and encouragement to an underserved population of college students," said J. Mark Davis, President of the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation. "This program is an extension of our long-standing commitment to college education throughout the United States. These fine students, who often juggle school, work and family, continue to give back to their communities through volunteer service."

The Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation was created in 1986 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Coca-Cola and to establish a legacy for the education of tomorrow's leaders through college scholarships.
