Salvation Army - Labor Rings the Bell 

Each year on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, the Local Unions each take shifts to ring bells at many of the retail locations.  Annually they collectivly receive close to $2,000 to donate to the Salvation Army for families in need, and in 2014 had raised a whopping $3500.00!

Sponsoring 
Paying respect to our veterans is important to Labor, and it shows through our sponsorships and support.  Working families and our community are what we serve, and we will continue to serve until the needs are met.  We contribute where we can make positive impacts.
Angel Trees/Adopting Families
Every year, many of the local unions join together in an effort to adopt stuggling families for the holidays.  By purchasing gifts and food, they allow those families to have some of the nice things that many of us get to enjoy.
