While many brands like to talk about treating their franchisees like family, fewer are willing to pony up when it comes time to send kids to college.However, JAN-PRO is doing just that with its Your Family First Scholarship Program.Andrew Butler, a JAN-PRO franchisee in San Diego, was one of six recent recipients of the program. Butler&#8217;s daughter, who attends the University of Evansville in Indiana, received some much appreciated assistance with the high costs of higher education, something Butler said was a big help.&#8220;It really helps the parents who have kids in school,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s a wonderful thing they have done.&#8221;The most recent scholarship grants bring JAN-PRO&#8217;s contributions to 70 awards equaling $150,000.Rich Kissane, president and CEO of Premium Franchise Brands (of which JAN-PRO is a subsidiary along with residential cleaning franchise Maid Right), has spoken at length in the past about how the Your Family First Scholarship Program helps with more than just financial concerns.&#8220;So many of our franchisees over the years have told us they joined JAN-PRO in order to build a business and leave a legacy for their families,&#8221; Kissane said. &#8220;We know there is no greater legacy than a good education, so we realized that giving back in this way would recognize our hard working franchise owners and help their families offset the rising costs of a college education.&#8221;The scholarship program comes at a time when parents could use all the help they can get with paying for college, as data shows <a href="http://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=76&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=jan-pro-helps-franchisees-their-kids-make-college-dreams-come-true-1203" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">school-related expenses have risen</a> astronomically in recent years.&#8220;Between 2001&#8211;02 and 2011&#8211;12, prices for undergraduate tuition, room and board at public institutions rose 40 percent, and prices at private nonprofit institutions rose 28 percent, after adjustment for inflation,&#8221; states the National Center for Education Statistics.Meanwhile, it&#8217;s not just the children of franchisees benefitting from the program. Daniela Stanoycheva, who emigrated from Bulgaria to the U.S. and became a JAN-PRO franchisee, was able to pursue her bachelor&#8217;s degree at Virginia Commonwealth University thanks to some <a href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/241330?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=jan-pro-helps-franchisees-their-kids-make-college-dreams-come-true-1203" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">financial help from the Your Family First Scholarship Program</a>, according to Entrepreneur magazine.&#8220;Franchising with JAN-PRO provides me with a flexible work schedule, and in turn, a better quality of life,&#8221; Stanoycheva told Entrepreneur last year. &#8220;All of the systems are in place to help you succeed.&#8221;<div> </div>
