Yesterday, the UFCW and Making Change at Walmart officially released a series of holiday actions against Walmart, beginning with a call to action during the week leading up to Black Friday called the \u201cGive Back Friday\u201d initiative.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Give Back Friday is all about helping the hundreds of thousands of hard-working Walmart employees who are paid so poorly that they must rely on assistance from food banks and use food stamps. During this entire Black Friday week, Making Change at Walmart, our progressive partners, and countless other organizations will be hosting food drives in cities across the country the week leading up to Black Friday with a goal to feed 100,000 Walmart workers and families though the holidays.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Locals Unions are asked to share and sign the pledge to donate to a food drive or a food bank in their area. By working together, we can help Walmart workers and their families.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

TAKE THE PLEDGE TO HELP US FEED 100,000 WALMART WORKERS AND FAMILIES<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Help us feed 100,000 Walmart workers and families and make sure to post about it using the hashtag #GiveBackFriday and #feedhungryworkers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of over 100,000 families because no one in America, especially the men and women who work for one of the richest companies in the world, should have go to hungry this Thanksgiving and through the holidays.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
