Education and Activism Opportunity!!

H and S community in Denver on Nov. 4-7

USMWF was able to bring 13 family members to attend the National COSH meeting the Health and Safety Summit and meet with an amazing team at the Denver OSHA office, Region 8 . The Denver visit was a very unique because USMWF members have never meet with a Labor Liaison or a Solicitor of Labor.  USMWF has enjoyed many events and meetings with OSHA offices but felt this particular visit was a good start for new relationships and very informative.

Volunteer

An amazing opportunity to help build a grassroots organization and use your skills to honor those killed working for the American dream and to ensure our family members come home at night!

Non Profit grant Writing and/or fundraising volunteers

USMWF is looking for volunteers to help our organization develop ways to raise money through grant writing, fundraising, and innovative thinking. The purpose of our development program is to seek funding from qualified grant- making organizations to help support our mission. Our ultimate goal is to instate 3 more full time positions and keep the two we already have. All work can be completed virtually, communicating via email and telephone.

We always welcome anyone willing to help with our efforts. We have biweekly calls made up of injured workers and families who have had a loss in the workplace. We cover everything from up coming events, document reviews, support and a myriad of other issues we encounter.

An ideal volunteer would be interested in working on specific projects from time-to-time on an as needed basis but we welcome anyone willing to work on a one time basis. Before you choose to volunteer please look at our modest Volunteer Code of Conduct.

Support USMWF and Let Other Know About You!

Help with a much needed cause, let others know about your organization and how you helped support their needs and get a tax break.

One of the most important factors after this type of death is acknowledgment. So often families are left without any recognition from government agencies, employment facilities, and even family and friends. We offer these families acknowledgment, tools to cope, tools to get involved and someone to speak to if needed.
