When Life'sWork of Western PA was founded around a century ago, it was originally called The Industrial League. The nonprofit was founded by the National Council of Jewish Women to advocate for women's right to employment. During the Depression, it helped find employment for immigrants and veterans. Decades (and another name change) later, Life'sWork remains committed to helping anyone with barriers to employment find work. The Life'sWork Spring Gala 2019 at Rivers Casino helps ensure that the work can continue. There will be hors d'oeuvres, live music, cocktails, and presentations honoring the nonprofit's work.
