How to Give Material Aid for UAW Strike
There
has been a great outpouring of support from the labor and broader Rochester
community for those striking at General Motors. We'd like to make it clear and
simple how to offer aid.
1) Material support: If you'd like to get
water, coffee, food, snacks, or any immediate support for the UAW members
walking the picket lines, we please ask that you bring those donations to the
UAW Union Hall at 221 Dewey Avenue, Rochester, NY 14608. The Union
wants to ensure that support gets distributed equally between the various
shifts on multiple picket lines.
2)
Emergency Food cupboard – bring non-perishable items such as canned
goods, paper products, cereal, tuna, boxed foods, etc. for striker’s families.
3)
Monetary support: The United Way will collect donations on behalf
of the members of UAW Local 1097. Anyone
wishing to donate can text UAWSupport to 41444 or donate at www.uwrochester.org/UAWsupport
Any
and all support is greatly appreciated!
If you need someone to pick up donations, please contact Bess
Watts at besswhat@gmail.com or call 585-426-0862.
