• Distribute informational flyers to people in your community. Click here for a sample flyer
  
• E-mail your friends and ask them to visit our website, www.nikewages.org.

Empower an Athlete or Coach
We have found through our campaign that many athletes and coaches are greatly unaware of the reality that Nike workers face. If they are aware, most fear the repercussions of taking action on behalf of the workers. You can write to athletes and coaches in your community, encouraging them to learn more about the issue and empowering them to take action in solidarity with Nike’s workers.

Read about an empowerment/action success story that we had this past year.

Let your voice be heard
We invite you to let your voice be heard. Please take the time to write to Nike CEO, Phil Knight and let him know how you feel about Nike’s labor practices. We ask that along with your personal message to Mr. Knight, that you include the following demands, which the workers ask of Nike:

• Publicly support workers’ rights to organize;
  
• Agree to allow independent monitors into their sub-contracted factories;
  
• Increase Indonesian workers’ wages by $1USD per day;
  
• Disclose the locations for all of their sub-contracted factories worldwide.
  

Send your letters to:

Phil Knight
C/o Nike Inc.
One Bowerman Drive
Beaverton, OR 97005-6453
U.S.A.

Send a copy of the letter to your representative in Congress. You can find your Rep.’s address by going to www.house.gov, clicking on "Write Your Representative" and entering your zip code.

E-mail Educating for Justice a copy of the letter so that we can present these letters at the next Nike shareholders’ meeting.
