Multiple fires, fed by intense winds, have devastated our communities across the state of Oregon. Several of our Laborer siblings have been evacuated from their homes and some have lost their homes. Laborers Local 737 will be referring our members for assistance, through our community partner, Labor’s Community Service Agency. Contact the office at 541-801-2209 and let us know if you or another member is in need. These referrals will only be made for members of Local 737.

As these wildfires continue raging throughout our state, we as a union will be looking for ways we can come together to support each other. If you are looking for ways to help members and other union members around the state, please join together and make a donation to the emergency fundraising efforts of Labor’s Community Service www.lcsaportland.org/donate.
