High school students who are a son, daughter or financial dependent of a Teamster member (including GCC, BLET and BMWED members) are encouraged to apply for the Academic Scholarship.  Academic scholarships are awarded to those planning to attend a four-year college or university.

A son, daughter or financial dependent of a Teamster member (including GCC, BLET and BMWED members) who are planning to enter a vocational or training program at a community college are welcome to apply for the Vocational/Training program scholarship.

There are two types of scholarship applications available:  Academic and Training/Vocational.   The details and eligibility requirements for each scholarship are available on the Fund’s website, www.jrhmsf.org (the “Key” for the JRHMSF applications is JRHMSF)

In 2017, the Fund awarded $1.4 million in scholarship awards to students in the U.S. and Canada.  Assisting the sons, daughters and financial dependents of Teamster members with their educational goals is a tradition that we are proud to continue.

The deadline to submit an application is March 31.
