The Community Services Committee performs the important task of getting help for members
and their families in time of need. If being there to assist when an emergency, natural disaster,
or even just hard times strike is something you feel strongly about, then this is the committee to
give your time and effort to.

Some examples of community service activities include:

  • Disaster relief
  • Organ donor awareness
  • Food drives
  • Blood drives
  • Support for laid off workers.

The Community Services Committee works through public and private organizations to assure
that members faced with problems in emergency situations get relief when needed. This
committee serves as the local union's link with the community as we all work together to help
those in need.
Generally, strike insurance benefits are handled by this committee when local unions are forced
to demonstrate their economic strength. This committee serves as the local's link with the
community as we all work together to help those in need.
