The annual holiday gathering of the Greater South Florida Maritime Trades Council on Dec. 16 was not only a time for fellowship among the representatives from the 10 affiliated unions attending, it also provided toys as well as donations for more gifts and food for those in need.
“We had a wonderful event at the Plumbers and Pipefitters Local 719 hall,” stated PMC Vice President Kris Hopkins. “But even more important, we are able to give back to our community through the generous gifts our members provided.”
The food, toys and gifts will be distributed by Lifenet for Families of Fort Lauderdale. The PMC has been working with this charity for several years
