UFCW 951 Foundation
What is the UFCW 951 Foundation?
The UFCW 951 Foundation, established in 1996, is a member-driven program that provides assistance to members facing difficult times, along with scholarship programs that help with childcare, education, children’s extracurricular and community involvement, medical and utility bills and transportation and housing expenses. UFCW 951 is always looking for ways to expand the Foundation programs that benefit members.
Funded primarily through voluntary weekly paycheck deductions by the UFCW 951 membership, the Foundation is an integral part of the 951 community.
The UFCW 951 Foundation supports more than 100 workplace fundraisers annually to help members rebuild their lives after hardships. The Foundation matches 25% of the amount donated by members during these fundraisers. The combined total is given to the member in need. The Foundation consistently gives over $40,000 back to members annually.
