Mission Statement
The mission of the Fred and Gertrude England
Hospitality Education Foundation is to assist in the educational
development of hospitality students by offering individual scholarships
to member employees or their dependents.
Education Foundation History
The New York State Hospitality and Tourism Association
officially incorporated its scholarship fund into an Education Foundation
in 1999. In appreciation to Fred England and his late wife Gertrude's
longtime involvement and dedication to the scholarship program,
the Foundation voted to change its name in May, 2001 to the Fred
and Gertrude England Hospitality Education Foundation.
Fundraisers
NYSH&TA sponsors the annual Saratoga Summer
Fundraiser every summer to benefit the Hospitality Education Foundation.
This fundraising event is held at the Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga
Springs, NY and all proceeds benefit the scholarship fund. Other
fundraising events are held throughout the year.
