Building Community: Local 663 Volunteers Making an Impact in Springfield
At Laborers’ Local 663, we believe that our responsibility to Missouri goes far beyond the hours we log on the job site. While we are widely known for building the heavy infrastructure and providing elite construction jobs in Kansas City and the surrounding regions, our heart belongs to the local communities where our members live and raise their families. Recently, our outreach efforts took center stage in Springfield, where Local 663 members traded their heavy machinery for volunteer tools, proving once again that union solidarity extends deep into community service.
More Than a Workforce: A Neighbor First
True authority and leadership in the construction industry aren’t just measured by the size of the projects we win, but by the lives we touch. When a community need arises in the Springfield area, our members are consistently the first to step up. From volunteering at local food banks and disaster relief efforts to restoring community parks and public spaces, LU 663 brings the same grit, organization, and dedication to volunteer work as we do to our multi-million dollar infrastructure builds.
For contractors in KC and Southwest Missouri, this community-first mindset is a reflection of the character of our workforce. When you hire Local 663, you are partnering with professionals who are genuinely invested in the long-term prosperity and well-being of the region.
How Union Stability Powers Local Philanthropy
Our ability to give back so robustly to our communities is directly tied to the stability that our union provides. Because our members are backed by excellent labor union benefits, a guaranteed fair wage, and the security of a strong pension, they have the financial stability and peace of mind that allows them to donate their free time to meaningful causes.
A career with Local 663 enables our members to be pillars of their neighborhoods by offering:
