The Labor Management Cooperation Trust, a partnership between Plumbers & Gasfitters Local 12 and the Greater Boston Plumbing Contractors Association, recently donated $9,000 to support high school vocational programs in Boston, Quincy, and Somerville. Checks of $3,000 each were issued to Madison Park Vocational High School in Boston, and Quincy and Somerville High Schools.

The donations are part of a joint campaign by the LMCT, Local 12, and the Greater Boston PCA to support high school vocational programs and encourage students to consider plumbing industry careers.
