Each year, children and dependents of Teamsters have a great opportunity to receive tuition assistance from the James R. Hoffa Memorial Scholarship Fund (JRHMSF).

The JRHMSF application process for the 2021 Academic and Training/Vocational Scholarship opens on November 30, 2020.

The scholarship is available to high school seniors who are sons, daughters, or financial dependents of Teamster members.

Academic scholarships range from $1,000 to $10,000 for high school seniors planning to attend a four-year college or university. The Training/Vocational program awards up to $2,000 for use at community colleges and trade schools.

Although the country was hit by the COVID-19 Pandemic, the scholarship Board of Directors is pleased to report that the Fund stayed on track with scholarship applications, and $1.2 million in scholarships were awarded, benefitting Teamster families in the United States and Canada in 2020.

Please refer anyone interested to http://www.jrhmsf.org/ for more information on how to apply.

Applications are due by March 1, 2021.
