Building Solidarity Award

last night Jobs with Justice celebrated our ten year anniversary by thanking nine people who have helped us through out the years. Our Building Solidarity Award is the biggest honor that our coalition bestows on any one. This year, we were proud to give the Building Solidarity Award to Katherine Black from AFSCME District Council 47.

Here are some photos from the event taken by Harvey Finkle.

Jobs with Justice is organizing grassroots support for the Employee Free Choice Act. Our members and activists have spoken in churches, in community meetings and on campuses to explain to the general public why the Employee Free Choice Act is important to restore balance to our economy. We know that if the Employee Free Choice Act were passed today, it would completely change the struggle that is faced by the Philadelphia Security Officers Union at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. In fact, if it were in place today, these workers would already be a union! We are building important support for the Employee Free Choice Act. Please take a minute to support us with a donation.

Your donation comes a critical time for Jobs with Justice and for the Employee Free Choice Act. Jobs with Justice is celebrating our ten year anniversary. On May 27, 2009 at 5:30 pm., we will mark our ten years with a cocktail reception at the William Way Center, 1315 Spruce St. This fun and casual event will be a great place to meet with organizers, activists and leaders from the Philadelphia labor movement and Jobs with Justice. Don't miss your chance to meet our dynamic network!

In addition to cocktails, snacks and networking, we will also honor ten leaders who have be key to Jobs with Justice over the year. This years honorees are Kathy Black, Ronald Blount, Reena Desai, Lou Faiola, Dorian Lam, April Logan, Linda Lotz, Cecelia Lynch, Vikki Millhouse and Rev. Schaunel Steinnagel.

This is also a critical time for the fight to reform labor law with the passage of the Employee Free Choice Act. Our reception will offer guests a chance to get the exclusive perspectives on this effort from Arlene Holt-Baker, Executive Vice-President of the AFL-CIO.

be sure to get your ticket or donate today. You support will make all of the difference!
