In late December, Kingston Friends of UNITE took up a Christmas collection to raise money for the women of UNITE 1764. In a little less than a week we raised $900 to help the strikers have a Merry Christmas. All the money came from concerned individuals and community groups in the area. We encourage unions and community groups in other areas to help out with the strike.
Even after Christmas it's not too late to contribute to the strike fund. Cheques made out to "Friends of UNITE 1764" can be sent to PO Box 461, Kingston, ON K7L 4W5 Canada. ALL this money will go directly to the local.
Sustaining donations -- each month until the end of the strike -- are especially important to help the women on the line.
An injury to one is an injury to all!
