The NWPA ALF with the assistance and support of our affiliates and our friends is working to make Christmas a little brighter for the 30 members of ironworkers 851 and their children. They are standing strong on the picket line at Erie Strayer, we can help! If we each just give a little we will accomplish a lot. We are hoping with your help to provide 3 gifts/gift cards per child a gift card for all of the families to help with Christmas dinner. At the party, we will have drinks, cookies, candy canes. And Santa will greet everyone. We will take pictures to give to the families. We will have filled stockings for every child that are made with American-made fabrics and were sewn by union members. While listening to festive music we will have an opportunity to socialize and build more solidarity.  

What? A Christmas Party!

When? Saturday, Dec. 18th From 10:00 Am-Noon.

Where? VFW Post 470  at 1808 W 26th St., Erie 16508.

Who? The families of Ironworkers 851 who are on strike.

Why? These union families have a need!

Honored guest:  SANTA!

 Gifts or gift cards for the children can be dropped off by December 15th at the NWPA ALF office in Franklin, the IBEW 56 hall 185 Pennbriar Dr in Erie, AFSCME DC 85 hall 1276 Liberty St in Franklin or email [email protected] if special arrangements need to be made. 

To make sure the members realize who made this possible we will be including a list of everyone donating, gifts, gift cards, supplies for the event, or funds at the event and in the tent at the picket line. 

Sponsors of the event are encouraged to have someone volunteer. If you want to volunteer text 814-360-8336.
