About Laborers Rising
BUILDING COMMUNITY IS HARD WORK, BUT IT’S WORTH IT!
Laborers Rising
Building Communities & Compassion in Iowa
Making a positive impact through community involvement and support.
Laborers Rising shines as a powerful example of Laborers’ Local 177’s dedication to helping and empowering the communities we serve.
The dedicated men and women of Laborer’s 177 joyfully contribute to the growth and well-being of communities. We hope our impact extends far beyond construction sites and labor halls, reaching into the hearts of those in need. Through a legacy of charitable giving and community involvement, LiUNA Rising emerges as a force for positive change, forging a path where the collective strength of labor transcends bricks and mortar, creating a foundation of hope and resilience for all. In the hands of laborers, the hammer becomes a symbol not just of construction but of compassion, building bridges of opportunity and support that elevate us all.
Upcoming Events
We believe in giving back to the community that supports us. These local charity and volunteering events are more than just opportunities to lend a hand—they’re a chance to strengthen bonds, uplift neighbors, and show the true power of unity. Whether we’re building, donating, or volunteering, we’re proud to make a positive impact right here at home.
