Join with Oregon Farm Workers in Solidarity – Three Opportunities
- Farmworker Social
I would like to warmly invite you to join with Farm Worker Ministry Northwest and PCUN, Oregon’s farm worker labor union, for a Farmworker Social as part of the PCUN and ECLA Wildfire Preparedness Campaign.
This will be a time to build community and share a meal in solidarity with farm workers and organizers. This is a rare opportunity to meet and greet farm workers as they return to their housing labor camp after a day of work.
Date: Friday, July 18th
Location: Labor Camp in Mt. Angel, OR
Meeting Point: PCUN Headquarters – 300 Young St, Woodburn, OR 97071
Meet by: 3:15 PM so we can depart together by 3:30 PM and arrive by 4:00 PM. There will be a
full dinner, compliments of PCUN. The event will end by 7:00 pm.
Please RSVP to the Rev. Connie Yost, FWM-NW President, cyost@uuma.org, 503-385-2135. In order to secure the safety of our farm workers, we can only accommodate people who have given their RSVP. Spaces are limited. Please note any food issues in your RSVP. - Wildfire Campaign Backpack Assembly Day
You are invited to help assemble 500 backpacks with wildfire emergency preparedness materials.
PCUN’s annual WPRR (Wildfire Preparedness and Rapid Response) Campaign is a vital effort to protect Oregon’s farm workers and rural communities.

Please consider making a donation to PCUN to help offset the cost of 500 backpacks ($25,000) for farm workers. Please send checks made out to: PCUN Foundation, memo line WPRR Campaign.
Checks made out to the PCUN Foundation are tax-deductible.
Please do not donate online as there is no way to include a memo specifying the funds are for the WPRR Campaign, and tracking is much clearer when received by check.
