We Are All Workers
Join forces with Levi’s to reinvigorate The Braddock Carnegie Library | http://bit.ly/d3Qfcb.
When Levi’s looked to find today’s frontier and the ‘new’ pioneers who populate it, they found struggling communities like Braddock, PA and the bold, generous, creative people who are working to bring them back. The ‘We Are All Workers’ campaign tells their stories, but the same stories could have been told of the folks in Detroit, San Diego, and Waitakere who have decided to make s&#t happen on their own terms, bringing mad innovation into their own back yards (sometimes quite literally).
Case in point: the good people at The Braddock Carnegie Library.
When the original man of steel, Andrew Carnegie, built this library in 1889, he did so in order to provide the employees of his first major American steel mill, The Edgar Thomas Works, with access to books, theater, music, swimming pools, and exercise facilities.
Today it still stands, though somewhat worse for wear. Vicki Vargo (The Executive Director) and her team of unruly nerds won’t take no for an answer and are determined to make the library the bloody, beating heart of the town once again. Find out how best you can help her make this happen - she’s got six microactions that need doing.
Just six.
You heard me.
