USW's Women of Steel Reach Out to Iraqui Children

The Women of Steel Committee of USW Local 12030 representing Alabama Gas in Birmingham, Alabama decided to help the kids that are caught up in the war in Iraq.   They began a program called “KANDY FOR KIDZ”. Local 12030 Women of Steel raised 125 pounds of candy for The “KANDY FOR KIDZ” project and then sent the candy to U.S. troops stationed in Iraq to give to the Iraqis children. The WOS of Local 12030 demonstrated once again what we already know; our members are the BEST and we are proud to have them as part of the activist of District 9!!
