  • Richard Clower, GMP, job loss grant recipient

    I’ve gone to our union meetings and told people to apply for these grants.

    — Richard Clower, GMP Local 125, Job Loss Grant recipient

  • Deborah Mims, APWU, disability grant recipient

    This is a great union benefit. Within a week or so of making a call, I received a check in the mail.

    — Deborah Mims, APWU Local 140, Disability Grant recipient

  • Dan Thomason, IRONWORKERS, mortgage assistance program participant

    The program is really simple to use and we were able to get the help quickly, just when we needed it. I was surprised how easy it was.

    — Dan Thomason, IRONWORKERS Local 395, Mortgage Assistance program participant

  • Maria Yaeger, AFSCME, Save My Home Hotline

    I know it's hard to ask for help, but help is out there when you call the Union Plus Save My Home Hotline. You have no idea how grateful and relieved I was to learn what they could do for me.

    — Maria Yaeger, AFSCME Local 145, Save My Home Hotline

  • Kristan McArthur, UFCW, hospital care grant recipient

    The Union Plus Grant helped me a lot. It was such a big relief after I used the $1,000 to pay off what I owed for the surgery.

    — Kristan McArthur, UFCW Local 1996, Hospital Care Grant recipient

  • Susan Geren, AFSCME, credit counseling program participant

    It was a great process. Instead of owing for life, I'll be able to pay off all my bills by 2011. I'm so grateful for the Credit Counseling Program.

    — Susan Geren, AFSCME Local 3019, Credit Counseling participant

    Help if you don’t know your union

    Your union membership dictates which Union Plus benefits you are eligible to use.

    1. What your national union’s name (not just your local number)? Scroll through the list we have to see if you recognize your union.
    2. What type of work do you do (select your occupation)?
    3. Do you have a union member card or union publication/letter that shows the name of your union? Find something with the name of your union, not just a local number.
    4. Is there a shop steward or work colleague you can ask what the name of your union is? You can even ask your human resources department to tell you the full name of your union?
    5. Do you have a Union Plus Credit Card? If so, the name and logo for your international union should appear on the front of the card.
