“Thank you for overseeing a wonderful program for union members such as
this,” writes a recent client of the Community Services Agency’s (CSA)
Emergency Assistance Fund. “I didn’t know about many of the services offered
but I’m glad I inquired because it was a tremendous help to have my utility
bill taken care of while I’m out sick.” The Fund – supported through local
union contributions and the CSA’s bowling and golf tournaments and Labor
Nights at the Nats – provides financial assistance to nearly 200 union members
each year who are struggling with an unexpected financial crisis. For more info
