Union Mom Inspires Daughter to Dream Big on 'Dress as Your Future Self' Day

In a heartwarming display of admiration and aspiration, Yesenia's daughter chose to dress up as her mom for school during "Dress as Your Future Self" day. This touching moment captured the essence of the strong bond between mother and daughter and highlighted the significant impact parents have on their children's dreams and ambitions. Yesenia, a dedicated member of the Utility Workers of America, has not only embraced numerous opportunities through her career but has also inspired her daughter to follow in her footsteps. The young girl proudly donned her mom's work attire, expressing her desire to one day take on the same role and make a difference in the community. Moms often juggle various chores and responsibilities at home, but they also serve as powerful role models for their children. Yesenia's story is a beautiful example of how our actions and dedication can ignite the passions of the next generation. Being a Utility Worker of America has provided Yesenia with great opportunities, and now, her daughter eagerly looks forward to growing up and becoming a part of this impactful union. We are excited to witness her journey and support her as she strives to become a Utility Worker of America.
