Toy Drive for Kohler Workers

http://wisaflcio.typepad.com/

The families of UAW Local 833 at Kohler have been on strike since November 15. UAW Kohler workers are on the front line of negotiating for fair wages and benefits for working class families and we stand strongly with them in the struggle.

Kohler workers are taking a moral and necessary stand for equal pay for equal work, fighting back against an unjust two-tier wage system that pays workers different wages for the same job and traps lower tier workers in a cycle of low wages.

WAYS TO HELP:
1.) The Wisconsin AFL-CIO is helping UAW Local 833 with a holiday toy drive for the children of striking families.

New, unwrapped toys (ages 0 to 17) can be dropped off by December 17 at:

Sheboygan Labor Council
1104 Wisconsin Ave, Sheboygan

OR

Emil Mazey Hall
5425 Superior Ave, Sheboygan

2.) Join the picket line on Saturday, December 19 at:
Clock Tower, 444 Highland Drive, Kohler

3.) You can also donate non-perishable food items, essential items like diapers, baby wipes and cleaning products and monetary gifts to the families of UAW Local 833 at:

UAW 833 Kohler Strike Fund
Emil Mazey Hall
5425 Superior Avenue
Sheboygan, WI 53083

4.) Monetary contributions, firewood for burning barrels and solidarity resolutions can also be dropped off at Emil Mazey hall.

Kohler workers are taking an essential stand to protect our working class. Braving rain and wind and snow, working families are coming together and standing strong in solidarity to fight for a contract that treats all workers fairly and equally.

The entire labor movement is standing with Kohler workers. Show your support by joining the picket line, giving a toy, or donating to the strike fund.
