2011 Waters Off Program Helps Elderly and Disabled

Low-income seniors and disabled homeowners get free plumbing help

     Thank You! To all of you that volunteered your time once again this year for the Waters Off  Program

Saturday, September 18, and Saturday, November 13 members of Plumbers local #15 volunteered their time to assist Place of Hope Ministries of St. Cloud with the completion of the plumbing project for their transitory housing. Place of Hope Ministries is completely funded by private contributions, providing transitory housing for individuals and families in financial trouble.  At Place of Hope Ministries, families or individuals rent a room giving them shelter, and opportunity to build their credit once again, helping them regain the ability to provide for themselves. The materials were donated by the Minnesota Mechanical Contractors Association, and Goodin Company. Thank you both for your generosity. We would also like to thank the ten plumbers who gave two of their Saturdays to help with this worthy project.
