Operation Christmas Basket Providing Meals and Toys for Union Members

Article published on december 2, 2022

This year, the Sacramento Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO, along with the United Way and contributions from the IBEW Local 340/NECA holiday raffle is having their Annual Christmas Basket Food and Gifts pick-up on Thursday, December 22, 2022.

If you know of a Union member who is in need this holiday season, we would like to provide items for a holiday family meal and age-appropriate toys for children.

Please submit your members’ names, number of people in the household, and ages and gender of kids to your DLC President no later than December 8, 2022, close of business. Please note this is a hard deadline.

We also welcome any volunteers that can help unload a truck and set up the distribution room on December 21.  Please email teresa@sacramentolabor.org  if you are able to volunteer.

Funding for this program comes from contributions from the Sacramento Central Labor Council affiliates and other organizations, as well as individual union members. We greatly appreciate any contributions you can make to help offset the cost of food and toys.

Make contributions payable to and send to:
