Guild members and their union brother and sisters take care of each other during strikes, especially during the holidays. 

Original caption from Guild Reporter, 1968: Two hundred of the families hardest hit by the Los Angeles Herald-Examiner strike receive the makings of a Thanksgiving feast from the Los Angeles Joint Culinary Board. Helping pack the boxes are, from right, William Robertson, strike-lockout director; Herman (Blackie) Leavitt, president of the joint board, and Gene Bufalino, international vice president of the Distilery Workers, which provided the finishing touch - bottles of wine in each Thanksgiving box. 

Volunteers prepare to deliver the meal boxes.

Other families enjoyed a Thanksgiving Feast at the union hall.
