A Tradition of Labor Support
Organized labor is a full partner in United Way, demonstrated by the more than 200 AFL-CIO Community Services liaisons currently serving on the staff of state and local United Ways throughout the country. Representatives of unions volunteer in all phases of United Way activities, serve on year-round committees, participate in annual United Way campaigns as part of the leadership structure, and communicate to union members the importance of the campaign and the critical work of the agencies involved. Union members are involved as volunteers in their communities by working with the many health and human care agencies providing services to the community.
United Way of the Greater Capital Region thanks the following labor organizations for their support of the United Way campaign and the local human services that benefit from their commitment.
