9to5’s successes over the last 40 years have had a life-changing impact on the lives of low-wage working women and their families. Our strength and longevity come from our members organizing for change on the issues that affect their lives. We’ve accomplished so much. We are a viable, vibrant organization because of you — our incredibly determined, strong and empowered 9to5 members.

Please join us to celebrate our history and achievements at one of our anniversary events on 9.25.13. Look for more details to follow.

9to5 Gets a Facelift: One of the many ways we are celebrating our 40th milestone is the launch of our new look and website this year. 9to5.org got a total redesign — it’s more than a facelift, it’s a major improvement in functionality that we hope will make the site easier to use. We hope you’ll have an opportunity to check it out and if you like what you see, please share it with your friends, family and co-workers.

Are You a Founding or Original Member of 9to5? If you were a founding member or one of the first to organize in your city around working women’s issues —or you are the child, grandchild, relative, or friend of someone who was—we want to hear from you. Or if you are a 9to5 member and you want to tell us what 9to5 means to you, please email pr@9to5.org and share your story.
