Hoffa Memorial Scholarship Fund. It was established in 1999 in memory of the Teamster leader who it, was once said,
...put more bread and butter on the tables for American kids than all his detractors put together.Hoffa believed Teamster sons and daughters deserve the best available education. He said,
Education must be the birthright of every American, not just the children of privilege.February 14th will mark his 100th birthday. As a tribute to his commitment to education, the scholarship fund this year will add $100,000 in scholarship and essay awards, bringing the total to more than $700,000.
