Remember the last call-in day to OfficeMax? After all of the calls
from around the country, the Director of Environmental
Affairs at OfficeMax, sent you know who an email with a request to
meet with our negotiating team! When we first launched the campaign
ten months ago, we knew that because of you—members, activists and
friends—we could move OfficeMax over the goal line with an
environmental policy that meets the standard across the office
supply company sector and results in real protection of our southern
forests .
We
were right...
We are now in the midst of earnest negotiations at the
highest levels of the company because of the grassroots pressure from
you and the rest of the Dogwood Alliance crew. Nevertheless, it’s not
over until it’s over, so stay tuned for either:
a) Another victory for the forests or…
b) Another call for your energy and commitment to Southern forests.
It
was your help on through with the “days of action” , postcards, phone
calls, press hits, media coverage , flyering, and questioning the CEO
and other board members that we are here today. Because of our people
power, their corporate ears are listening and our negotiating team
rests assured that we can hold the bar and move OfficeMax to take on a
leadership role in the office supply sector and in protecting forests
of the Southern U.S….
Stay tuned…
