United Way of the Lower Mainland and the Labour movement have shared a valuable partnership for more than 30 years.
United Way and Labour have shared a valuable partnership for more than 30 years. The Canadian Labour Congress (CLC) and United Way developed a relationship in communities across Canada as one way of ensuring that workers and their families have access to important social services in their community. Labour and United Way are partners in social change. Together, United Way and Labour are improving lives and strengthening communities.
The Labour and United Way partnership involves more than just financial support. Labour representatives volunteer with United Way as members of the United Way Board of Directors Labour Committee, Campaign Labour Committee and as part of the CLC United Way Union Counselling Program. Labour also has input in the decision-making process around policy and allocation of funds.
