Green Worker Cooperatives (GWC) is a non-profit organization that incubates environmentally sustainable worker cooperatives in the South Bronx of New York City. The organization, founded in 2003 by Omar Freilla, seeks to create green-collar jobs and promotes environmental justice through the creation of cooperatives.[1] GWC is a member of the United States Federation of Worker Cooperatives.

In 2008, Green Worker Cooperatives started ReBuilders Source, a worker cooperative that reuses discarded building materials.[2] Founder Freilla received the Rockefeller Foundation’s Jane Jacobs Medal and $100,000 which he used to finance the organization. Rebuilders Source also received a $70,000 grant from Citgo.[3]
