CUPE donates $25k to assist with typhoon relief efforts

The Canadian Union of Public Employees donated $25,000 to Oxfam Canada to assist relief efforts in the Philippines following last week’s devastating typhoon.

“The thoughts of all CUPE members across Canada are with the people of the Philippines, and with all who have lost loved ones to this tragedy,” said Paul Moist, National President of CUPE.

CUPE also donated $5,000 to its sister organization in the Philippines, the Confederation for Unity, Recognition and Advancement of Government Employees (COURAGE) for its relief efforts on the island nation.
