Penn Traffic Employee Update!

1/25/10 News Release

UFCW1776 Rallys for Health Care in Scranton!

Dear UFCW Local 1776 member:

I know that you must be just as heartbroken as I am to see and hear the news reports of the suffering of the Haitian people. Their needs and desperations are astounding.

I’m proud that the labor movement has mobilized quickly to deliver aid to these stricken people. I hope that you can join me in reviewing the links to the right from the AFL-CIO Working Families e-Activist Network and select one of the opportunities listed to contribute whatever you can to ease the suffering in Haiti. I know that these are not easy times, but no amount is too small. Even if you can donate as little as $5 it will make a difference to the men, women and children of Haiti who need our help in their time of crisis.

Thank you,

Wendell W. Young, IV
President
UFCW Local 1776
