THANK YOU!

From all of us at ROC United, we express our gratitude to the community advocates, social justice leaders, and allies who have stood with us and invested in creating change. You are a crucial part of our team. 

Your unwavering commitment and generous contributions have been pivotal in transforming the lives of the restaurant workers we serve. Your support is not merely a donation but a lifeline that has made a significant difference.

We cannot achieve our mission alone. Your support, especially during our most challenging times, has been instrumental in strengthening and empowering workers, fostering transformative systemic changes necessary to unlock the full potential of our nation’s restaurant industry.

By coming together, taking collective action, and supporting one another and for one another, we can envision and embrace our shared values and ideals of equal economic opportunities and justice for restaurant workers, and uphold dignity and respect for everyone.

Thank you for inspiring us to continue our work and strive for even greater achievements. We eagerly look forward to celebrating more victories with you in the future!

In hope and solidarity!

ABOUT OUR SUPPORTERS

Family Values @ Work is a network of grassroots organizers and coalitions in over two dozen states, leading the care movement for economic, racial, and gender justice. We’ve built power in key states and localities, focusing on winning policies that support workers and families, including paid family and medical leave, paid sick and safe days, and affordable, high-quality childcare at both state and national levels.

The Center on Education & Labor is dedicated to restoring the link between education and economic mobility by advancing policies that strengthen the key social institutions necessary to connect them. Rebuilding America’s middle class will require a coordinated approach to education and labor policymaking that recognizes that the good jobs of the future will require a postsecondary education, but that education and skills on their own are not enough to ensure that the jobs pay well and include essential benefits. The Center’s work spans the policy domains of education, labor, and workforce development. Our goal is to forge a more holistic approach to the challenges generated from technological change, an approach that recognizes the need to equip workers of the future with the knowledge, skills, and power necessary to fulfill the terms of our social contract.

Adalah Justice Project is a U.S.-based organization led by Palestinian women and queer people from St. Louis, Orlando, New York City, and across the country. We believe our struggles are intertwined: we are fighting for the liberation of Palestinians and all oppressed communities, at home and abroad.

Our values are rooted in the work of radical Black feminists, intersectionality, grassroots power, queer and trans liberation, and anti-imperialism, uniting us from Idlib to Ferguson to Gaza. We believe in a world free from racial capitalism, imperialism, and state violence where we invest in life instead of destruction.

We build cross-movement coalitions to bring power to grassroots campaigns targeting corporations and cultural institutions and figures demanding they divest from genocide and apartheid.

People’s Climate Innovation Center (Climate Innovation), a fiscally sponsored project of Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs and network partner of Movement Strategy Center works nationally to build capacity for and deploy community-driven solutions to climate change rooted in racial justice. Despite deep roots, historic, and present realities of racism and oppression, we know the depth and breadth of communities’ expertise and assets far surpass the vulnerabilities placed upon them. 

Through innovative program design, leadership development, capacity-building, training, and facilitation, we support these frontline communities–along with governments, institutions, and funders–in their work to ensure a more beautiful, just, and sustainable world. Our staff brings expertise in program design and facilitation, training, planning, strategic communications, and evaluation, which is all in service to our community-driven framework and commitment to moving resources and power to meet the needs and priorities of frontline communities. 

Climate Innovation offers a whole-systems approach to movement building by elevating solutions that are community-driven, interconnected, and that intervene at multiple levels to shift and subvert traditional top-down planning to be accountable to and led by those who most closely experience climate injustices.
