Why I Became a Member of 9to5

I became a 9to5 Movement Builder, contributing to 9to5 each month, after seeing the extraordinary dedication and passion of its members and staff.

I struggled to find employment for two years, even though I had a college degree and work experience. During this time, I depended on social welfare programs like food assistance and unemployment insurance for necessities.

I got to know 9to5 as a temporary membership engagement canvasser in the Denver office. I was inspired by 9to5's efforts to ensure Colorado jobs were fair and sustainable, even in these tough economic times.  I was impressed by 9to5’s work to guarantee that the voices of working women--like me--were being heard throughout Colorado.

I am a Movement Builder because 9to5 is an essential advocate for families who need a voice now more than ever in the face of big business interests and government complacency. As a Movement Builder, I can help 9to5 represent working families like myself, who are the foundation of Colorado and our country.
