REPORT ON THE IMMOKALEE WORKERS

During our sermon last Sunday, Julie Lane reported on the Immokalee workers. PVCC members supported the Immokalee workers in the past when they called for a boycott of Taco Bell. These workers are now asking for our support in their efforts to encourage Wendy’s and Kroger Food to join the Fair Food Program (FFP). FFP is a ground breaking partnership among farmworkers, growers and major tomato retailers that successfully addresses decades of poverty and abuse historically associated with Florida’s tomato industry. Information is available at the church, or you can go on line: workers@ciw-online.org, or type in Coalition of Immokalee Workers, or www.CIW-onling.org.
