POSTAL SERVICE “SHOWS SOME LOVE” FOR AREA NEEDY
"Show Some Love" is this year's Combined Federal Campaign slogan, and it was in evidence last Thursday at the US Postal Service Headquarters campaign kick-off, where the Community Services Agency and other charities were in attendance. Postal Service headquarters staff contributed $350,000 last fall and the capital area department-- which includes members of local Metro Washington Council affiliates NALC, APWU and the other postal locals- contributed $450,000. They’re looking to top $1 million this year. “CSA relies on member donations through this and the other work-site giving campaigns to bring vital support and aid to area families in crisis,” said CSA Executive Director Kathleen McKirchy. “Please be generous and ‘Show Some Love’ for your brothers and sisters in their time of need.” Contribute through your worksite campaign using these designation numbers: United Way AND DC ONE Fund- 8253; Combined Federal Campaign- 19579; Maryland Charity Campaign- 9320.

“I would like to express my appreciation for your generosity in support of me and my family during the fire at our home. Your donations helped in so many ways! Even though that day continues to play back in my mind, I learned that I have people that really care about me and my family.”
Member of Fire Fighters Local 36

“I have been though a few job training programs, but I want to say that Building Futures is the greatest - the staff really do care and helped me get into a union program and now I am a cement masons and plasterers apprentice!”Graduate of CSA’s Building Futures Construction pre-Apprenticeship Program

The Community Services Agency helps hundreds of workers and their families every year but only because of the generosity of local unions and their members. As we head into the colder months, that support is needed more than ever.

Here’s how YOU can help:

Make a direct donation: give securely online by clicking here now; no contribution is too small or too big!

Forward this widely to co-workers, friends and family: solidarity works!

Post this on your local’s website and circulate on social media.

Distribute the flyer at right to your members or co-workers: click here to download and pass along. For hard copies of the flyer, call 202 974-8221 or email [email protected]
