SEPTEMBER 11 UNION RELIEF FUND
Remember how many of the victims on September 11 were firemen, policemen, rescue, maintenance, and other workers doing their jobs ...
From LabourStart.org, a worldwide web site originating in the U.K.: "How trade unionists can help -- In particular we encourage all trade unionists all over the world to contribute to labour's charity, the Union Community Fund, which has established a special September 11th fund. We all mourn the dead from the tragedies of Sept. 11. But we also can honor and support the living by helping the survivors of these attacks and their families. You can make a difference right now by donating to the Union Community Fund's special September 11th Relief Fund. The fund is coordinating with disaster relief efforts on the ground in New York and Washington D.C., so contributions go to families efficiently and quickly."
Checks payable to: Union Community Fund September 11th Relief Fund, 815 16th St. N.W., Washington, D.C. 20006
