About North Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters
A member-governed regional council for carpenters and specialty craft workers, North Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters uses its grantmaking to reinforce labor, education, and member support alongside its core union functions. The recent grant list shows large donations to political and labor-aligned organizations, including two $100,000 grants to Future Majority in Washington, DC, and a $100,000 donation to MA Not for Sale in Boston. That pattern sits next to support for union-affiliated entities such as Carpenters for Hope Charitable Corporation and Carpenters Helping Hands, signaling a mix of external advocacy and internal member-centered giving. The foundation’s role is broader than any single program. It supports apprenticeship and trade skills training, journeyman education, scholarship programs, and substance abuse and family assistance through CAP, while also funding contractor relations and organizing-related efforts. Several recent grants go to organizations connected to elections, labor coalitions, and public campaigns, which fits a funder tied closely to union membership and representation. Other awards support education and youth-oriented nonprofit work, such as Simon Youth Foundation in Indianapolis. Across the current grants, the council appears to use donations as a flexible tool for advancing worker interests, member services, and allied civic activity.
What North Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters Funds
Education appears through the NASRCC Scholarship Program, which awards cash scholarships to members and children of members who are continuing formal education; applicants must verify a service or union-related activity as part of the process. The program covers Massachusetts, New York, and Connecticut, and awards range from $250 to $7,500. Member support is also visible in the Carpenters Assistance Program, which focuses on emergency financial assistance in the Northeast United States and accepts unsolicited requests. That aligns with the council’s member-benefit orientation and its focus on union members and their families. The broader recent grant list includes labor and political support. It gave $30,000 to Mass Afl-cio Cope in Boston, $10,000 to Maine State Building and Construction Trades Council in Augusta, and $10,000 to Build Ri in Providence, showing attention to labor infrastructure and allied organizing efforts.
