The center column was dedicated to present them, featuring the latest one.A specific section was designed to add or remove links to specific campaigns.

Unite Here!This website was designed to publish the events and actions of a campaign. The main column was devoted to photographs and videos that were very relevant as a visual testimony of the development of the conflict.In the same manner another column was dedicated to present workers’ testimonials that would load randomly to feature different quotes.

Three posters were designed together with a set of flyers on different languages, featuring each a different worker that belonged to a specific sector of the union with a background of workers marching. A special business card that folds in half was designed for organizers, so they could hand out with dates of events and if needed write additional information.

Unite Here! / INMEXThis entity within the union was created to compete with private firms and the design was targeted to a more corporate audience. It needed to have a completely separate and individual identity.The color conveys a serious and yet vibrant impression to attract customers, giving them a sense of confidence.
202 661 3678 [email protected]
INMEX: MEETINGS WITH A MISSION We believe that when you spend your dollars with responsible corporations, they’re more likely to continue doing the right thing.
Founded in 2006 with the support of the hotel workers’ union (UNITE HERE), INMEX is a non-profit corporation that provides comprehensive meeting planning resources for your organization.
But unlike traditional third-party meeting planners, we ensure you’re spending your dollars with socially responsible hotel corporations.
We work closely with media, environmental, human rights, philanthropic, labor and community organizations so your event dollars go to sustainable hotel corporations that
respect the communities, the workers and the environment in which they operate.
“INMEX helps plan our conventions
and puts us in hotels that are good
corporate citizens. !ey’re professional
meeting planners that have saved us
time and money. But the best part about
working with INMEX is that they give an
organization like ours peace of mind that’s
impossible to quantify.”
—Nolan Treadway, Logistics Director, Netroots Nation
“Our organization expects a very high
level of professional meeting planning
services for our annual convention.
But for our members, it is also important
that we’re partnering with responsible
corporate actors. In the end, we decided
to go with INMEX — not only because
they o"er high quality event planning
solutions, but also because they assure
that our dollars are going
to good corporations.”
—John Stephens, Executive Director,
American Studies Association
Book with INMEX and live
your values through the
dollars you spend.
M E E T I N G S W I T H A M I S S I O N
RFP PREPARATIONWe prepare custom made RFPs tailored to your organization’s individual needs. INMEX has also developed standard RFP templates, so that suppliers understand the importance your group places on corporate and social responsibility. At INMEX, we strive to ensure you have a seamless event, but also ensure you’re patronizing companies that respect your organization’s values.
SITE SELECTIONINMEX has built and maintains an extensive database on all existing hotels and new properties in the development pipeline. INMEX also compiles detailed information about desti-nation cities and other suppliers, so that you know which locations and corporations share your values well before you book your event.
LOGISTICS, AV & IT MANAGEMENTINMEX’ staff brings over 25 years of prior experi-ence in hotel and resort management, which allows for an insider’s understanding of the mechanics of a meeting. We work with national and local contractors for audio/visual services, exhibit set-ups, translation services, and much, much more.
EVENT PROMOTION & SPONSORSHIPSINMEX’ real value lies in its relationships. INMEX clients are groups that are committed to using socially responsible corporate partners for their meetings and conventions. In the course of working with our clients, we have developed intimate, principal-to-principal relationships with the largest academic, advocacy, religious, non-profit, philanthropic and labor associations in the US.
SITE VISIT PREPARATION & LOGISTICSAt INMEX, we know that you never really know what a destination has to offer until you’ve seen it first hand, which is where our close relation-ships with CVBs and national hotel chains can help your group. INMEX can assist with air reservations and can manage all other logistics for your group’s all-important site visit.
CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONINMEX negotiates the best available rates and concessions for your group. We ensure that the final contract protects your group as well as the hotel from the unexpected, such as labor disputes and natural disasters. We are also keenly focused on matching concessions with your group’s individual values when we negotiate contracts.
HOUSING SERVICESINMEX is able to provide and manage all aspects of housing and registration for your event. From on-line booking tools through integrated invitation and attendee registration, INMEX’ housing support is another example of how our services can save your group time to focus on what is important: the meeting itself.
CONFERENCE & EVENT MANAGEMENTINMEX staff has over 25 years of hotel and on-site management experience, so event logistics are like second nature for us.Whether your group needs help simplifying room block management, or needs assis-tance with set-up, or could use some advice on flow issues, INMEX can help with all of your event’s logistics.
SPEAKER FACILITATIONINMEX, in conjunction with the Hotel Worker’s Union (UNITE HERE), have recently hosted events where numerous speakers — which include Actor Danny Glover and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond — have participated. Many more speakers from nationwide orga-nizations are available to your group through INMEX’ substantial and unique relationships.

Workers UnitedThe image used as the cover of the brochure was designed as part of the corporate identity of the union. It presents workers from different nationalities that come together. The union’s name is written in 13 different languages and the logo appears in the center of a collage of orange rectangles.A similar cover was used for the different brochures needed by each sector of the union, to give a sense of unity and belonging to the workers.

Unite Here!Unite Here! was the first union in the US to endorse senator Obama when running for president. It was essential to present the union’s identity to the fullest, while campaigning for the candidate.The campaign revolved around an illustration of Obama blended with a high contrast photo of Unite Here! workers. The illustration was created instead of using a photograph, to highlight the pose and to give it a more striking and unconventional effect.

Workers UnitedThe image of this union was designed having in mind three main aspects: solidity, multiculturalism and optimism. The logo is based on a square to give it strength and stability. People from many nationalities belong to this union and so it was designed to fit the name in 13 different languages. It was of high importance to give the union a positive look, thus the use of orange as part of the image.

“ I moved to the US from China to build a better life for myfamily. I like my job at Guckenheimer and I work hard to keepthe customers satisfied. But the managers here don’t reward usfor our experience and dedication. I’m standing up for respecton the job. That’s why I want the union.”

“I make uniforms for the US military, and I feelpride knowing that our service men and womenwear the clothes that my co-workers and I make.Working for a government contractor, I should beable to take care of myself and my children andnot need government assistance. That is why Iwant a union.”
“Yo fabrico uniformes para el ejército esta-dounidense, y siento orgullo de saber que nues-tros hombres y mujeres en el servicio militar usanla ropa que hacemos mis compañeros y yo. Traba-jando para un contratista del gobierno, yo deberíatener la posibilidad de mantenerme a mí y a mishijos sin necesitar asistencia del gobierno. Por esoes que quiero un sindicato.”
Por qué queremos un sindicato
“Dynamite Distribution fired me without causebecause I believe that the company found out that Iwas a union supporter. We’re not allowed to speakour first language (Tagalog) at work and are forcedto speak English. We’re fighting for better wages,benefits, and for dignity in our working lives.”
“Dynamite Distribution me despidió injustificada-mente porque creo que la compañía descubrió queyo estaba apoyando a la organización sindical. Notenemos permitido hablar nuestro idioma natal(tagalo) en el trabajo, y nos obligan a hablar inglés.Estamos luchando por mejores sueldos, planes deprestaciones, y por dignidad en nuestra vida laboral.”

E l ! de enero de "##$, UNITE HERE se convirtió en el primer sindicato inter-nacional que dio su respaldo o% cial a Barack Obama para presidente. UNITE HERE vio en Obama a un candidato que entendía las luchas del ciudadano común estadounidense y que era capaz de transformar a nuestra nación. Con
ese respaldo o% cial, los integrantes de UNITE HERE intervinieron en la historia y se em-barcaron en una de las más ambiciosas y exitosas campañas políticas que nuestra organiza-ción haya emprendido jamás.

Desde entonces, Barack Oba-ma ha marchado en nuestras líneas de huelga, se ha sentado de nuestro lado en la mesa de numerosas negociaciones de contratos, y ha votado con-sistentemente del lado de los trabajadores. Así pues, cuando Obama anunció que se estaba postulando para presidente, con orgullo lo respaldamos. Sin embargo, una larga y difícil campaña de elecciones pri-
marias nos dio !"# días para ayudar a mandarlo a la Casa Blanca. El trabajo de nuestra organización sindical durante esos !"# días es una inspiración.

159 DÍAS PARA HACER HISTORIA:Barack Obama y UNITE HERE
P ara cuando Barack Obama anunció su candidatura a la presidencia, este joven senador de Illinois y UNITE HERE eran ya buenos amigos. Mientras fungió como senador estatal de Illinois, Barack había trabaja-do estrechamente con nosotros para hacer progresar las políticas a favor
de los trabajadores. Cuando Barack decidió postularse para el Senado Federal de E.U., hizo un llamamiento a UNITE HERE para que lo apoyara. Y aunque su triunfo se veía lejano, nosotros lo apoyamos de corazón porque sabíamos que él iba a ser una voz para los trabajadores en Washington.

Volunteering on the UNITE HERE Obama campaign has been one of the greatest experiences of my life. It was so satisfying seeing the differ-ence we were making in people’s lives, especially among the very old and the very young. We visited neighborhoods where no one had ever come to regis-ter voters. We worked so hard to edu-cate people on the impact voting would have on their communities. At fi rst they did not trust us, but over time, we won their trust and were welcomed in the neighborhoods with open arms. They were so grateful for registration and education efforts. Each day just made you feel great about the change we were helping to bring to our country.
Working on this campaign taught me the value of perseverance—the benefi t of going that extra mile. I now know that every goal is within our reach when we come together as we did to elect Barack Obama.
at least !"" members from all over the country to devote eight weeks to the campaign. # e program would be gruel-ing. It would require everything that the volunteer had to give, and then some. As political volunteers, members had to take a leave from work and, in the cases of Wisconsin and Virginia, travel far from home to form an army for change in Virginia, Nevada and Wisconsin. Not surprisingly, members lined up to an-swer the call and within short order, !!$ members signed up to make history.
VIRGINIA – REGISTER, EDUCATE AND TURNOUT
# e story of Virginia is one of
enfranchisement—bringing the vote to
those who felt le% be-hind. Our Virginia team felt steeped in history, as their state had ignited the Freedom Rides of the &'("s which chal-lenged the institutional racism that per-sisted in the South despite recent civil rights victories. “Coming to Virginia as a UNITE HERE political organizer gave me the opportunity to help complete the un) nished work started over forty years ago.” Ken Williams, Bell Captain and Head Steward, Double Tree Hotel, Chi-cago - Local &, Chicago, Illinois.
When it comes to presidential elec-tions, Virginia had voted Republican
since &'(*. How could we reverse this trend? Register new voters and educate them on exercising their voting rights. So on September $th, (* volunteers and UNITE HERE sta+ members arrived in Virginia ready to work throughout the state. With voter registration and educa-tion as our focus, UNITE HERE volun-teers acted as community organizers, talking with the general public about the changes voting could bring to their neighborhoods.# e volunteers faced and overcame
many challenges. “When we ) rst arrived in the neighborhoods, people did not trust us, but we did not give up. We con-tinued to visit the same neighborhoods and talk to the same people and eventu-ally communities grew to trust and wel-come us as ‘the people in the red shirts’ who had come to help them vote.” Tony Evans, Bartender and Shop Steward, Golden Gate Field, Local ,-$" Oakland, California.
Six days a week, our Virginia volun-teers visited neighborhoods previously excluded from the political process, in part, because our door-to-door regis-tration drive was the ) rst of its kind in many Virginian neighborhoods. Volun-teers regularly met and registered ) rst-time voters in their -"s and '"s.
In total, our Virginia team knocked on (",""" doors and registered over $,""" new voters. On election-day, ,!$
“We went door to door educating people about the importance of voting.
Over and over again, we told people that communities that vote—use
their political voice—receive more attention from elected politicians. ”Bill Horne, Quality Assurance, United Converting Company, Mid-Atlantic Joint Board Local 131A, Union Town, Pennsylvania.

My grandfather was a slave, and yet he told me, when I was grow-ing up, that during my life time, we would elect a Black President. When I met Senator Barack Obama, I knew that my grandfather was right. But I also knew that it was going to take all of our dedication and energy to send him to the White House in 2008. When my union opened the volunteer political organizer Obama program, I signed up right away. I was surprised to fi nd out how many young people seemed not to care about voting, even for Obama. But over the course of two months, we got them fi red up and ready to go. And seeing these young men arrive at the polls on November 4th was truly satisfying – to know that we had made a difference and had ignit-ed a new generation of voters. I look forward to volunteering again.
Nevada
UNITE HERE members volunteered in three regions to get out the vote, producing a dramatic increase in voter turnout and an Obama win with !"# of the vote.
In addition, our Danville team played an instrumental role in the Democratic victory of the hotly con-tested Congressional race in Virginia’s !th District –helping Tom Perriello un-seat a $%-year Republican incumbent by &%! votes.
NEVADA – MEMBER TO MEMBER CAMPAIGN
In Nevada, UNITE HERE’s Obama campaign ef-
forts jumped into high gear during the primary
season, when Local ''( members ac-tively campaigned for Obama during the caucus and registered new vot-ers throughout '))& and '))*. Dur-ing the general election, Team Nevada had *) full-time member volunteers on the streets and ") member volunteers at worksites, talking to union mem-
bers and their families about bringing change to Washington.
To win in Nevada, our UNITE HERE team developed a three-prong approach: ($) help naturalize immi-grant union members and register them before the '))* general election (') persuade the $$),))) Change To Win union members in Nevada to sup-port Obama, and (") encourage early voting to maximize voter turnout.
Our Nevada volunteers worked six days a week during most of the cam-paign and every day during the two week early voting period—talking with members about the issues, recruiting them to volunteer and encouraging them to vote early. Our political orga-nizers faced apathy and fatigue among voters overwhelmed by the wake of massive foreclosures and economic hardship.
“Las Vegas has been ground zero for our country’s economic meltdown—so many people are struggling just to keep their homes. Obama showed a sincere concern and commitment to revers-ing this trend. Our job was to convince members and their families to en-gage in the political process in the face of their personal + nancial crises—to channel their personal frustration into political activism for change.” Rosa Gamboa, Housekeeper, Mandalay Bay Casino, Local ''( Las Vegas, Nevada.
During the campaign, Obama visited Nevada ') times and attended numer-ous UNITE HERE events, including sitting with us during contract negotia-tions and making house visits to mem-bers facing foreclosures. Obama’s con-nection with UNITE HERE facilitated
