As you know, Hurricane IAN has caused severe damage to many people’s homes and property. NYSUT has over 10,000 retired members in Florida and we are concerned for their wellbeing. That is why we are asking you to help us reach out to them to make sure they are ok and provide support for those who need it. We will be both texting and calling retirees whom we have contact information.
On Tuesday will begin a very easy texting program to those we have cell phone numbers.
On Wednesday we will begin phone banking our members.
You will be provided a script and training on how to make texts and/or calls to these individuals.

Those who have done this kind of outreach before have said how fulfilling it was to connect and provide a helping hand and an open ear for these members. We hope you will choose to volunteer!
Please share this email with retired members who may be interested in volunteering.
