01What it does

What Unite All Workers for Democracy does

Mission

To secure and maintain a better union, an informed and empowered membership, and the democratic direct election of strong, well-qualified, and honest leaders to all of our union offices, UAWD works now and will continue to work to strengthen the UAW from within.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

On its FY2024 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.

The UAWD membership voted to dissolve at its April 27, 2025 membership meeting. Assets were distributed to similar non-profit organizations during May and June of 2025.

Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).

How it's funded, over time

Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
