  • Guaranteed Scholarships Available
    Posted On: Apr 20, 2011

    Scholarships Set For All Children

    And Grandchildren of Members and Retirees

         If you have a child or grandchild graduating high school this year who intends to pursue higher education of any kind, please give them this article.

         To qualify for a guaranteed scholarship (ranging from $500 to $2000), the student must simply fulfill a few requirements.

         All applicants to the Local 445 Scholarship Fund in Memory of Douglas L. McCauley must:

    1.                 Be a son or daughter or grandchild of an active or retired Teamsters Local 445 member who has had at least twelve consecutive months of membership in good standing with Teamsters Local 445.

    2.               Be in his/her last year of high school; individuals who have already graduated from high school are not eligible.

    3.               Plan to attend an accredited college, university or trade school.

    4.               Submit a completed application form. The forms are available by emailing local445@hvc.rr.com, or by calling 845-564-5297, EXT. 118. Applications must be submitted by June 30, 2011. The application must be accompanied by a letter of recommendation by a teacher/counselor from the applicant’s school, an official transcript and SAT or ACT scores, and an essay of 500 words on the topic: “How a union contract has helped my family.”

          The applications will be reviewed by the Local 445 Scholarship Committee. Monies for the scholarships are raised in a fund separate from union dues, at functions such as our annual Family Picnic. The scholarship is in honor of our beloved former leader Douglas L. McCauley, who passed away in May 2007.

         “Please pass the word on this scholarship,” said Local 445 Principal Officer Adrian Huff. “It’s very important we do all we can to encourage our children and grandchildren to seek higher education.”
