How Can You Help?

Become a VMO

We organize to strengthen our union, to gain power in our industries, and to help our union family grow. We organize because, as union members, we know the importance of dignity and respect at the workplace, and we believe that every worker should have those rights. We organize because we want the best for our families and for our futures.

Join the TWU Volunteer Member Organizer Program to help bring our union message to non-union workers who want to have a voice on the job!

TWU Volunteer Member Organizers have made a real difference in countless organizing campaigns across the country. They are empowered members who play one of the most important roles in our union. Volunteers will receive all the classroom and in-the-field traning needed to become a strong leader, and are paired with experienced TWU organizers who are helpful mentors throughout the organizing experience.
