Annual Holiday Drive for Our Adopted Charities

Posted on by

Housing Families is working to end family homelessness by providing safe, temporary shelter and quality affordable housing, so families can remain together. 

Bread of Life is a faith-based ministry with a mission to feed the body and to nurture the soul, striving to feed the hungry, the homeless, the needy, and the isolated.

IBEW Local 2222 supports these charities throughout the year, and especially during the holiday season. We will once again be collecting gift cards to donate to Housing Families and Bread of Life. Gift cards can be given to your steward, dropped off at the Union office, or you can call us at 617-929-6000 to arrange a time for us to pick them up. 

If you would prefer, you can donate to the IBEW 2222 Benevolent Fund via Venmo or PayPal, or donate cash, and we will purchase and deliver the gift cards.

Suggested Gift Cards:

Target
Kohl's
Vanilla Visa		Best Buy
Game Stop
X-Box Live		Uber Eats / Door Dash
Stop & Shop
Market Basket

 

 

 

The generosity of our membership is 2nd to none. Together we raised $8,000, which was split evenly between our two adopted charities.

Thank You so much for your support!
