PROGRAM PARTNERSHIPS

Wendy’s is proud to be affiliated with our High School Heisman Program partners who extend themselves to great lengths to make the Wendy’s High School Heisman Award possible every year.

The Downtown Athletic Club (DAC)

The Heisman Memorial Trophy
The Wendy’s High School Heisman Award – the only other award to use the Heisman name – was created with help from members of New York’s Downtown Athletic Club’s, Heisman Trophy Committee.

The Heisman Memorial Trophy is awarded each year to the most outstanding player in the United States by the Heisman Trophy Trust. The Heisman Trust consists of former members of New York’s famed Downtown Athletic Club, which unfortunately closed after the tragic events of 9/11/01.

The WHSH national awards banquet is held each December in New York City during the annual Heisman Trophy weekend. Throughout the annual Heisman Weekend, several dozen former winners of The Heisman Memorial Trophy return each year to welcome the newest member of the Heisman family
