NORTH BERGEN, NJ. (January 14, 2025) The ILWU has launched a relief campaign aimed at supporting the victims of the devastating wildfires affecting the California area. These fires have caused significant losses, including the destruction of homes and entire communities.
The ILWU has established donation collection centers in various locations, accepting essential items such as non-perishable food, clothing, hygiene products, and medical supplies. Additionally, a mechanism has been set up to receive monetary donations that will be fully directed toward recovery efforts and support.
Below is the official ILWU statement containing all the details on how you can contribute, whether through financial or material donations. The statement also includes information about the needed items, as well as the dates and locations for drop-offs.
We thank you in advance for your solidarity and support during these challenging times for our colleagues and their communities in California. (Thank you International IDC International Dockworkers Council for this information)
