Gabriella Hample

Fox Chapel Area High School senior Gabriella Hample has been named a member of the 37th class of the Coca-Cola Scholars Program. Gabriella is one of only 150 high school students from across the nation to be selected as a Coca-Cola Scholar this year. According to the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, Gabriella is one of “150 exceptional students leading positive change across the country.” She is also “a game changer – a force for positive change in your community and for good in the world. You inspire us and we are truly honored to welcome you to the Coca-Cola Scholar community.”

Prior to being named a Scholar, Gabriella was both a Regional Finalist and a Semifinalist for the award. The scholars were chosen from more than 105,000 applicants and are selected based on their academic excellence, leadership, and service demonstrated in school and community activities. Each scholar receives a $20,000 college scholarship.

Gabriella has been invited to attend the all-expenses paid Scholars Weekend April 3-6, 2025, in Atlanta, where she will be honored at the Coca-Cola Scholars Banquet. The weekend will also include a leadership development program, a visit to the World of Coca-Cola museum, networking opportunities and a group community service project.

A joint effort of Coca-Cola Bottlers across the country and The Coca-Cola Company, the Coca-Cola Scholars Program is the largest corporate-sponsored, achievement-based scholarship program in the United States. With the addition of the 2025 class, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation will have provided more 7,050 Coke Scholars nationwide with over $87 million in scholarships since the program’s inception.
