USW Cares District 2 Local 2-585 Continues to Feed the Hungry

United Steelworkers Local 2-585 out of Mount Pleasant, Michigan, is stepping up in their community and making a difference.  unloadingThis is the second year the local has purchased a steer from the Isabella County fair to donate to the Rosebush Emergency Assistance Program and the Isabella County Soup Kitchen.  Through donations by local processor, Grahams Organics, they are able to get the meat processed and packaged for free.  Along with donation over 800 pounds of meat, the local also held a canned food drive, donating over 500 pounds of canned foods. Another example of Steelworkers making a difference for their community.
