Electrical Workers Minority Caucus provides day of service in Ferguson
In advance of the holiday season, the IBEW Local 1 Electrical Workers Minority Caucus (EWMC) performed a day of service in Ferguson, Mo., which included picking up trash.
About 30 Electrical Connection members participated in the Nov. 20 event. Later this month, the Electrical Connection will return to Ferguson for its annual support of the community’s “Shop With a Cop” holiday giving program.
Sylvester Taylor, director of diversity, equity and inclusion for the Electrical Connection and EWMC founder and president, orchestrated the day of service. It included IBEW Local 1 Business Manager Frank Jacobs, business representatives and IBEW/NECA Electrical Industry Training Center Director Shawn Levin.
“We have had the privilege of serving Ferguson’s electrical and communication needs and many of our members live in and around the community,” Taylor said. “So as part of our annual service day, we wanted to spruce up Ferguson for the upcoming holidays.”
