It’s easy to partner on events funded by the Family & Community Education Fund (FCEF)!
As Steelworkers, we’re passionate about standing in solidarity with social justice causes. The FCEF has project funds available to help your local union make a difference in your community.
Connect with service agencies and labour organizations in your neighbourhood whose work inspires you. Ask them to plan and host community engagement events with your local! Then, submit your project ideas to the Family & Community Education Fund for review. There’s no limit on the amount of applications a local can submit.
Joining the FCEF is easy. Contact your District Education Co-ordinator or Gabriele, the FCEF Co-ordinator at FECF@usw.ca, for more information.
