Friends!
Hello to all of our wonderful allies in the NYC area. We thank you for coming to our actions and teach-ins and supporting the Campaign for Fair Food. We know many of you have been wondering how you can get more involved with this work and now is your chance. The NYC Community Farmworker Alliance has just restructured and we now have clearly established working groups. With these new working groups there is a formalized way for you to use your talents, develop new skills, avoid going to too many long drawn out meetings, all while supporting the amazing work of the Coalition of Immokalee workers. We would love to have YOU join one of our working groups and be a part of the NYC Community Farmworker Alliance.
All you have to do is write to the contact of the group or groups you're interested in and they'll tell you all you need to know! Also, there is no set time commitment required for these working groups as some activities can take one hour, and others many months.
Please feel free to write us at farmworkersolidarity@gmail.com if you have any questions!
