Helping Those in Need This Holiday

With the holidays approaching, the Community Services Agency (CSA) is gearing up for its Annual Holiday Basket Project for needy area families. The project provides food and toys to dozens of local unions members struggling with unexpected financial hardships. "There are three ways you can help," says CSA Executive Director Kathleen McKirchy. "You can make a contribution to the CSA and earmark for 'Holiday Baskets,' run a NEW toy or non-perishable food drive at your union or worksite, or identify a needy family from your local." For more info, contact Silvia Casaro, scasaro@dclaborarchives.org; 202-974-8223. All contributions should be mailed to: Community Services Agency, 888 16th St NW, Suite 520 Washington, DC 20006.
