Help Build Jobs for Women in Manufacturing

Jobs to Move America, a partner with IUE-CWA in helping to create opportunity for good manufacturing jobs, needs CWAers' help.

The group has applied for a grant to help fund its "Modern Rosies Project," to increase recruitment, training, hiring, and support for women in manufacturing, especially in the Los Angeles area transit manufacturing industry.

Your online vote for the "Modern Rosies Project" could help move this project forward. The $100,000 grant would enable Jobs to Move America to partner with educational institutions and create more manufacturing job opportunities for women.

The grants are being awarded by LA2050, an organization of Los Angeles citizens, groups, stakeholders, and policymakers – and backed by the Goldhirsch Foundation – working together to make Los Angeles a better place to "learn, create, play, connect and live," for all residents.
