USW Cares: Local 6787 Steelworkers for Kids Program

Submitted by Allen Gipson

On November 12, United Steelworker Local 6787 continued its long standing tradition of collecting monetary donations which are used to purchase warm coats and toys for less fortunate children in Northwest Indiana. “Steelworkers for Kids” counts on their member support to ensure that hundreds of local children will have a joyous Christmas. This year, we broke all previous records and raised over $12,000!

Congratulations to USW Local 6787 who make a significant impact on their community.

This project is just one of so many USW’s amazing members do every day to give back to our communities. If you or your local are doing good things in your community, we want to hear about them. Let us know and share video and photos at www.usw.org/uswcares and use the #USWCares hashtag when you post your stories on social media. Don’t forget to shout out @Steelworkers!
