Colleagues,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m reaching out to ask for your participation in the 2026 WNY Membership Organizing Drive (MOD), taking place August 19\u201322.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This initiative focuses on greeting non\u2011member colleagues in our chapter and inviting them to join UUP. It\u2019s apaid opportunity to help strengthen our membership base and support our union\u2019s long\u2011term organizing goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Teams of two organizers\u2014including one experienced lead\u2014will visit the homes of non\u2011members off of your UB obligation to have in\u2011person organizing conversations. Participants will be paid $25\/hour, must complete at least one full door\u2011knocking shift, and will receive mileage reimbursement if driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Across the four days, we will meet before each shift to distribute materials and after each shift to debrief and turn in your packets. Location: To be determined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your participation directly supports our chapter\u2019s growth and helps ensure we remain strong, visible, and member\u2011driven. I hope you\u2019ll consider joining us for this important organizing effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
