Dear Friend,

2023 has been a historic year for the labor movement, with unions nationwide standing up to corporate power with something even stronger—worker power!

ALIGN stands in solidarity with workers fighting for fair wages, safe working conditions, and a just transition to a green future, and we’re proud to lift up the work of bold leaders in the movement who are charting the path forward.

For the 2023 Movement Builders Awards, we’re thrilled to be honoring:

SAG-AFTRA and WGA East, who have shut down Hollywood, striking to protect their members’ livelihoods and win a fair contract in the face of a changing industry.
Public Power NY coalition, who built the grassroots campaign that won the Build Public Renewables Act so New York can lead the nation in building publicly owned, 100% renewable energy while creating green, union jobs and making energy affordable for working families.
Maritza Silva-Farrell, a long-time organizer—including a 12-year tenure at ALIGN, six of them as Executive Director—and current leader in the Ford Foundation’s Future of Work(ers) program, who has left an indelible mark on New York’s movements for worker and climate justice.

RSVP to join us on October 11 and celebrate our 2023 honorees!

The Movement Builders Awards are ALIGN’s biggest fundraiser of the year, supporting our nonprofit mission to organize labor and communities for a more just and sustainable New York.

We rely on contributions from allies like you to fund our year-round work addressing the root causes of racial and economic injustice, and we hope you’ll join us to celebrate the strength of our growing movement.
