ScroogeJoin St. Louis Jobs with Justice for the annual “Holiday Party with an Attitude,” a holiday happy hour fundraiser where workers vote for the person or organization that wreaked the most havoc on Missouri working families this year.

Last year’s winner was Metro STL CEO John Nations.

Who’s it going to be this year? There are so many deserving candidates! You can help decide!

THE MISERLY DETAILS

Each year, St. Louis and Kansas City Jobs with Justice member organizations nominate candidates for “Scrooge of the Year” related to a campaign for their organization.

Organizations run often-raucous campaigns to convince partygoers to vote for their Scrooge. The greediest, cold-hearted CEO, politician, corporation or 1%er who truly exemplifies the Spirit of Ebenezer Scrooge wins!

This year’s holiday happy hour fundraiser is Tuesday, Dec. 8, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at ATU Local 788, 1611 S. Broadway in St. Louis.

SUPPORT JWJ

In addition to being a fun party, “Scrooge of the Year” builds Jobs with Justice member organizations’ relationships. Through the event, groups have the opportunity to learn about others’ struggles, issues and campaigns in a festive way.

Admission is $20 and includes 20 votes for the candidate of your choice, appetizers and non-alcoholic beverages. A cash bar is also available.

The holiday happy hour is a fundraiser – one dollar, one vote – vote EARLY and OFTEN.

St. Louis Jobs with Justice is still accepting nominations from member organizations.
