As part of the FFP’s on-the-clock, worker-to-worker education, a CIW staff member and two volunteers display a new Fair Food Program education drawing, depicting a supervisor scolding a worker for speaking up on the job.
Dear Fair Food Allies,
As the year-end giving season comes to a close, we cannot thank you enough for your generous support.
Together, we have accomplished so much.
Earlier this year, we launched an urgent appeal after an Immokalee-based farmworker, Marco Antonio Hernández Guevara, lost his life to heat stress while laboring on a farm that’s not part of the Fair Food Program. You responded with compassion and resolve, raising more than $27,000 to help his family cover the sudden and overwhelming costs that accompanied the unfathomable loss of their beloved husband and father. In just the past month, you helped raise nearly $10,000 toward the urgently needed expansion of the CIW’s community co-op, ensuring Immokalee families can access affordable groceries after the town’s only major supermarket closed. And throughout the year, hundreds of you have given month after month to sustain the Fair Food Program, ensuring it continues to guarantee freedom and dignity for tens of thousands of farmworkers across the United States, Chile, and South Africa.
Without you, there would be no Fair Food Program—only a deferred dream of dignity for farmworkers forced instead to endure daily exploitation in the fields.
After a long and often difficult year, your support has been a powerful source of hope for the Immokalee community. During this time, the Fair Food Program has expanded significantly, and the broader Worker-driven Social Responsibility model has become a global beacon of hope.
From nursery workers in Florida and construction workers in Vermont to sugarcane harvesters in India and banana harvesters in Ecuador, WSR is lighting a path toward human rights for millions of low-wage workers across the globe.
But our work does not end here.
In the year ahead, we are committed to expanding the Fair Food Program to protect thousands of more farmworkers. At a moment when human rights conditions in agriculture continue to deteriorate, the Fair Food Program must grow to meet the challenge of the growing human rights crisis. At the same time, as WSR gains prominence, our responsibility to worker- and human-rights organizations around the world seeking to adapt the model to their own industries grows only larger. To meet both of these challenges—the growth of the FFP and the spread of WSR—we need your support.
Please consider making a one-time year-end contribution by December 31.

As you gather with loved ones around the table this holiday season, we invite you to pause and honor the workers who put food on our tables. Thank you for standing in solidarity with farmworkers—this giving season and throughout the year. We look forward to taking our work to the next level together in 2026.
