Americans work hard. And it shows. Since 1950, worker productivity in the U.S. has increased an impressive 434%.
What doesn’t show, not often, is the contribution made by domestic workers. These are the unsung heroes at the heart of our nation’s productivity—the workers who make other work possible. They’re the nannies, house cleaners and homecare workers who tirelessly look after our loved ones and homes. Their efforts are crucial yet undervalued, which leaves them vulnerable to low pay, abuse, sexual harassment, and a lack of protections and rights.
We should give a thought to these laborers, their hard work and the tough conditions they work under, and not just on Labor Day.
And we should support them when we can. CREDO Mobile does. In August, we helped the National Domestic Workers Alliance fight to win respect, recognition and rights for domestic workers.
To date, CREDO Mobile has donated over $13 million to nonprofit groups advocating for economic justice—the Working Families Party, ACLU, Equal Rights Advocates, Restaurant Opportunities Centers United, as well as the National Domestic Workers Alliance.
On Labor Day and every day, CREDO Mobile stands with American workers. Will you stand with us? Join CREDO Mobile and you’ll help raise more donations for groups fighting to defend working people. These donations cost you nothing extra. But they mean everything to the groups we support.
Join today and you’ll get all you want from a phone company: the nation’s top-rated network, competitive plans, great deals on new phones and friendly, responsive customer service.
And you’ll get much more. You’ll get an easy, effective way to make a difference in the world by generating much-needed donations for progressive nonprofits fighting for the causes you care about, like economic justice, equal rights and the environment.
