Celebrate Cesar Chavez!
Cesar Chavez' March 31 birthday is soon approaching and we are receiving requests throughout the country for a list of Cesar Chavez events in your neighborhood.
We have a user-friendly calendar tool that allows our supporters to share your local Chavez events--no event is too small or too big. This interactive tool also allows to the public to search for them by zip code and the events appear on a map.
If you're planning a Cesar Chavez event, it even allows folks to RSVP to your event and allows you to recruit event volunteers.
And if you would like to attend a Cesar Chavez event, you can do a search by zip code and look for events within a 5 to 100 mile radius.
To list a Cesar Chavez event go to: http://action.ufw.org/page/m/3bed9c92/1454bfc6/470905b3/2b471e5d/896918321/VEsHAA/
To find a local Cesar Chavez event go to:  http://action.ufw.org/page/m/3bed9c92/1454bfc6/470905b3/2b471e5a/896918321/VEsHAw/
Please attend one of these events and celebrate the legacy of Cesar Chavez!
 
Have photos/ video of your local Cesar Chavez event that you'd like to have us share?
Put your photos on a online gallery and upload the videos to YouTube and e-mail the links to ufw@ufw.org so we can feature them on our Cesar Chavez Resource Page at and the UFW Facebook page.
Sign the Petition for a National
Cesar Chavez Holiday
Cesar Chavez' March 31 birthday is just two weeks away. The United Farm Workers and the Cesar Chavez Foundation are supporting the grassroots efforts of the Cesar E. Chavez National Holiday Coalition and U.S. Rep. Joe Baca (D-Calif.) in their efforts to make Cesar's March 31 birthday a federal holiday.
Will you help us? Sign the petition today. Then help us spread the word by sharing the petition on Facebook, Twitter, e-mail it to friends, downloading the petition and sign people up at Cesar Chavez observances and other events.
