So right now I am at the Garment Worker Center doing volunteer work, but I decided to take a quick break and post a blog since I am a little behind in my posts. For the past 4 weeks I have been coming to the Fashion District to volunteer and intern and the Garment Worker Center, a nonprofit organization that helps garment workers organize and learn their rights.
When I come here I usually work from 12:00pm-4:00pm and I enter database information about wage claim cases that they have helped workers to file. It may get tedious, but it can be quite interesting. The reason I started working here in the first place is because my Comm 303 class requires us to volunteer at a non profit and do a case study about the organization.
So in a week I need to write a 20-30 page paper about sweatshops and Garment Worker Center (goody!). But after that, I will be free from essay slavery. I can't wait.
