Workers from NIPSCO volunteered at Sojourner Truth House (STH) on Thursday, February 20th, as part of Black Labor Week 2025. This annual observance celebrates the contributions of Black labor unions while promoting community engagement and service. The initiative is led by Ephrin “E.J.” Jenkins, Founder and Executive Director of Black Labor Week Project Inc., who continues to champion a movement that highlights the impact of Black labor unions both in the workplace and in the community.

As part of the week’s activities, Thursday was designated as a Day of Community Service, encouraging union members and supporters to give back to local organizations. NIPSCO employees demonstrated their commitment to this mission by dedicating their time and energy to support the work of STH, furthering the organization’s mission to serve individuals and families experiencing homelessness and poverty.
