In January 1979, following the formation of the New Rochelle FUSE, the New Rochelle FUSE Welfare Fund (originally established in 1968 by UTNR), was expanded. The Welfare Fund was created to provide various benefits that would not otherwise be afforded to City School District Employees.
The funds to provide those benefits are derived from the Board of Education through the process of collective bargaining and are strictly separated from all other union funds. The Fund benefits that members enjoy are the result of the success of the FUSE negotiations on behalf of its members.
Presently, the Fund provides dental, optical, hearing, life, accidental death, and dismemberment benefits. Click on this link to see your benefits at a glance.
The day to day business of the Fund is managed by Diane D’Onofrio Delgado, the Fund Manager, under the auspices of the Board of Trustees. The Fund retains legal, actuarial and third party claim administrative professional services.
The Welfare Fund continues to provide important benefits to our members through the negotiations process by the FUSE. As the FUSE remains strong and vital, so does the Welfare Fund.
“The Welfare Fund strives to engage our members and to provide benefits and services to them so that they may have healthy, safe, and stable lives. Know your benefits and all that they entitle you too. Take advantage of these benefits that were established for the Welfare of the membership of FUSE and their families. Be strong in body, mind and soul.”
