As UFCW Local 247 Union Representatives continue t

As UFCW Local 247 Union Representatives continue to deliver scholarship cheques to this year's winners, we want to give a big congratulations to Abineet, Brigid, Cindy, Eknoor, Eric, and Shamsa. 🎉Sometimes these interactions hit you right in the feels... ❤️As one of our UFCW Local 247 Union Representatives shared recently when delivering a cheque to a winner in her store, "her co-workers were so happy for her. They said, 'if anyone deserves it, it's her.' It was the most touching experience I've had presenting a cheque to a member."It's truly heartwarming when we all recognize each other, in our struggles and in our wins. That's what solidarity is all about! 🎓
