Friends of Seasonal & Service Workers

Friends of Seasonal and Service Workers (FSSW) is an all-volunteer organization based in Portland, OR, dedicated to supporting the collective efforts of farm, seasonal, and service workers in overcoming poverty. FSSW provides training programs, organizes neighborhood food drives, fights for affordable energy, unites local businesses with low-paid workers, supports self-help medical and dental benefits, advances campaigns led by low-paid workers, and produces an independent newspaper to raise awareness about the struggles faced by low-income workers.

FSSW's mission is to empower low-income workers by mobilizing community support and resources, advocating for their rights, and working towards sustainable solutions to poverty. Through their various initiatives, FSSW aims to address the systemic issues that perpetuate poverty and create a platform for low-income workers to voice their concerns and fight for economic justice.
