RFS Gives Back Foundation, Inc

Please Be Seated Inc. is a non-profit community project based in Rockville, MD, dedicated to enhancing the Montgomery County Ride On bus system by providing seating at bus stops. With over 4,000 stops in the system, many without seating, the organization aims to install 500 benches at the most utilized stops, improving safety and comfort for patrons, especially those with mobility constraints. The initiative targets a total funding requirement of nearly $1,000,000, with a goal of raising $300,000 from community builders, including state and county funding, as well as support from local businesses and individuals. Please Be Seated believes that adequate seating at bus stops will significantly enhance the daily commuting experience for thousands of residents in the area. Generated from the website

Transportation Communications International Union is an affiliate of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers. The union consists of clerks, carmen, auto technicians, computer programmers, skycaps and redcaps, onboard service workers, secretaries, supervisors, government workers, truck drivers, accountants, yardmasters, intermodal workers, police officers, reservations agents and transit workers. It was established when 33 railroad clerks gathered in the back room of Behrens' cigar shop in Sedalia, Mo., in 1899. They formed Local Lodge Number 1, of a union they named the Order of the Railroad Clerks of America, which is the precursor to Transportation Communications International Union.
