Tell Sodexo and Aramark to "End The Harvest of Shame" and SLAP Corporate Greed

If you've never heard of Sodexo or Aramark they are both super-corp food service providers with major college and university cafeteria contracts. They are also big time purchasers of Florida tomatoes.

They do not have an agreement with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers to protect farm laborers from inhumane treatment, sub standard wages, and in extreme cases human slavery.

In a business kind of way it must be nice to pay bottom dollar for the stuff you buy. But, damn, human slavery?

We know that probably most of the things we wear, eat, and buy are somehow tied to the mistreatment of a worker somewhere in the world, but the least we can do is sign a petition for the workers in our own backyard who pick one of the most popular vegetables in America.

Log on to unionvoice.org/campaign/harvestofshame to petition Aramark and Sodexo to reach a contractual, and legally binding agreement with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers.
