A Legacy Of Education
Since 1999, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters has honored the legacy of James R. Hoffa by awarding college scholarships to the children and dependent grandchildren of Teamster members. This year, the Fund plans to award $800,000 in well-deserved support through $10,000 and $1,000 scholarships and Essay Contest winners.
“We congratulate every one of the awardees and wish them great success in their time at college and in their future careers,” said Jim Hoffa, Teamsters General President.
