The Fruits of Labor Scholarship Coalition (FLSC) is honored to be able to partner with the Weston T. Hyde Educational Foundation to raise funds for scholarships for students served by the New York State Migrant Education Program (NYS-MEP). Each year, dozens of talented migrant students, the children of migratory agricultural workers, overcome numerous challenges (frequent moves, interrupted education, limited English proficiency, etc.) to graduate from high school and put themselves into position to continue their education at the postsecondary level.

The name Fruits of Labor was chosen for the coalition to signify the long hours of hard labor that so many of these families put in on New York’s farms in order to provide opportunities for their children to receive a quality education and pursue their dreams. These students truly are the “fruits” of their parents’ labor and despite their best efforts, many face significant financial challenges to achieving their college and career goals. FLSC’s vision is that “students and parents served by the NYS Migrant Education Program System will have the financial resources necessary to pursue further education and achieve their dreams.”
