Due Today: First Round of\u00a0Hardship Fund Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n

Undergraduate students supportive of our strike have started a\u00a0hardship fund<\/a>, separate from the UAW Strike Fund. This need-based fund will be distributed by a Hardship Fund Committee of GWC. You can\u00a0apply for the hardship fund at this link<\/a>—apply today to be considered in the first round of applications<\/strong>. If you have any questions about the application process, or if you would like to get involved with the hardship committee, please contact us at\u00a0gwchardshipfund@gmail.com<\/a>. In order to qualify, workers must spend 10 or more hours a week at the picket line, either\u00a0virtual<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0in-person<\/a>\u00a0(we encourage workers to join the picket line for 20 hours or more per week). Workers who require an exemption due to time zone differences or other circumstances can apply for an exemption using either of the picket sign-up links (virtual<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0in-person<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
