L.U. 1347 (ees,em,u&ptc), CINCINNATI, OH — 2023 was a great time for our local, and we met or exceeded all our goals for the year. One of those goals was increasing membership participation in community volunteering events such as our annual teddy bear giveaway to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, the breakfast with Santa, Matthew 25 Ministries’ volunteer day and the Cincinnati St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
We also set a goal of 80% or higher of our members completing PAL — Politics, Activism, Livelihood — training, which we exceeded. We have been involved in some local organizing efforts and also showed support for other locals in their efforts. We capped off the year by celebrating 80 years of serving our members.
Local 1347 would like to acknowledge and thank our officers and staff for the hard work and efforts put forth for our 2023 achievements. All of this was accomplished while keeping the lights on for our communities. Now, on to 2024 and setting the bar even higher.
