Last November, the convenience store chain invited military veterans from all over the United States to enter the contest, which offers the winner a free 7-Eleven franchise. Now, the top 10 finalists have been selected. The finalists have created videos, which they have uploaded to <a href="https://www.facebook.com/7ElevenFranchising?sk=app_403834839671843&amp%3Bbrandloc=DISABLE&amp%3Bapp_data=chk-5515a98fe0850&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=7-eleven-to-award-one-veteran-a-free-franchise-1374" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">7-Eleven's Franchise Facebook page</a>, and are asking the public to listen to their stories and vote for who is the most deserving of a 7-Eleven store. Voting runs through March 29, and the winner will receive a waived franchise fee (valued up to $190,000) and the opportunity to franchise a location in the continental U.S.&nbsp; The heartfelt videos have resonated with Americans, including Greg Franks, 7-Eleven vice president of franchise systems. &#8220;From our veterans, I would expect nothing less,&#8221; Franks said in a statement. To further extend the campaign and give back to those who have served, 7-Eleven will also be donating $1 (up to $50,000) for every vote cast to <a href="https://www.hireheroesusa.org/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=7-eleven-to-award-one-veteran-a-free-franchise-1374" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Hire Heroes USA</a>, a nonprofit organization committed to helping U.S. service members, veterans and their spouses find work. Vote <a href="https://www.facebook.com/7ElevenFranchising?sk=app_403834839671843&amp%3Bbrandloc=DISABLE&amp%3Bapp_data=chk-5515a98fe0850&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=7-eleven-to-award-one-veteran-a-free-franchise-1374" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>!
