Team Member Assistance Program

The Team Member Assistance Program was created to help team members navigate unexpected hardships. Originally launched in response to the challenges of COVID-19 and federally declared disasters, the program expanded its mission in March 2025, offering assistance not only during large-scale emergencies but also for personal hardships.

The program’s core message is simple yet powerful: Culver’s is grateful for everything you do and we’re here for you. The application process is designed to be straightforward, with special consideration for privacy and dignity.

Please reach out to your team manager for more information about applying.

Team Member Scholarship Program

Supporting our team members’ growth, no matter the path ahead of them, is something we care deeply about at Culver’s. One way we show that is through the Culver’s Foundation Scholarship Program. This foundation exists to support team members of all ages as they pursue their educational goals. Thanks to the generosity of franchisees, suppliers and friends of Culver’s, we’ve been helping team members take bold steps toward a brighter tomorrow for over 30 years.

What began in 1993 with a single $500 scholarship has grown into a program awarding over $8 million to thousands of team members for their academic achievement, helping ease the financial burden as they work toward college or technical degrees.
