Overview
Mission
Postal workers union for clerks
What it reported doing in 2025
We fought for dignity and respect on the job for the workers we represent, as well as for decent pay and benefits and decent and safe working conditions. We worked to both better ourselves and boost workers' morale.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 83% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
