According to the U.S. Social Security Administration, \u201cHarland\u201d ranked #3,257 on the list of most common baby names for 2017. To honor the world\u2019s most famous chicken salesman, continue his namesake and inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs, KFC offered a college donation to the first child born on the Colonel\u2019s birthday (Sept.9, 2018) named Harland. As a birthday gift from the Colonel and KFC, the first baby Harland received $11,000 (in honor of KFC\u2019s 11 herbs and spices, of course!) to go towards their college education, setting them up for future success.<\/p>\n Colonel Harland David Sanders was born on September 9, 1890. Ever the entrepreneur, Harland Sanders did things the Hard Way. Whether bouncing back from a series of failed jobs and business ventures or founding Kentucky Fried Chicken in his 60s, Harland never gave up. Harland\u2019s grit, passion and fervor are what KFC wants to instill into the next generation.\u201cEven though vintage names are making a comeback,our iconic founder\u2019s name was dwindling in popularity, and we couldn\u2019t just stand idly by and let that happen,\u201d said Andrea Zahumensky, KFC U.S. chief marketing officer.\u201cWe hope that this birthday celebration honors the Colonel and encourages the next generation of people aspiring to live the American dream.\u201dBeginning on Sept. 9, parents can submit the name, date and time of their baby Harland\u2019s birth along with their contact information on www.kfc.com\/babyharland<\/a>.<\/p>\n The site will be live for 30 days, giving parents time to adjust to the newest addition to their family. The baby\u2019s first name must be Harland to qualify,and each entry will be vetted appropriately to ensure that the winning child was in fact (among those who entered) the first Harland born on Sept. 9, 2018. Additional rules and regulations can be found here. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.
