Great day for a great cause. ⛳️❤️

ILA Local 1351 was proud to be represented at the 33rd Annual USMX/ILA Children's Fund Golf Outing benefiting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

This year's outing raised $150,000 to support the incredible work being done for children and families through St. Jude.

The next day, the group joined Cooper Ports America on the course in the Bronx, making the most of a trip filled with fellowship, partnership, and giving back.

Proud to represent the ILA on and off the waterfront.

Giving back to the community is at the heart of what the ILA stands for. ❤️

ILA LOCAL UNION 24 is continuing its Food Drive in support of the Houston Food Bank, helping provide meals and support to families in need across the community.

Led by Lavell Bird, the drive has already raised more than $1,000, with all proceeds going toward the purchase of additional non-perishable food items. Donations are still being accepted, and every Friday, Lavell has a table set up at the local to collect items — with donations welcomed throughout the week as well.

From canned goods to pantry staples, every contribution helps make a difference for families facing food insecurity.

Strong Port. Strong Union. Strong Community. 💪

🎖️Memorial Day 2026 Letter from our ILA South
Atlantic and Gulf Coast District President🇺🇸

Dear Friends:

As we soon celebrate 250 years of nationhood, we pause to remember those that gave the ultimate sacrifice allowing our nation to endure this long. The Memorial Day holiday provides us with the opportunity to celebrate those souls lost fighting to preserve our freedom and democratic life. Yes, we face challenges to ensure our democracy remains a shining light among nations, but we remedy those challenges by participating in our democracy, being active in civic affairs, and of course, voting. The upcoming 2026 mid-term elections will be an important test as to whether we continue our slide from a flourishing democracy that recognize the separation of powers we learned as children.

I am honored to be the President of the South Atlantic and Gulf Coast District and thank my brothers and sisters of the ILA, tor all you do as we join together this Memorial Day honoring those who served, but praying for a more hopeful, peaceful and safe time ahead.

May God Bless America and the ILA and all of those in need.

Fraternally,
Alan A. Robb
President
