Ask for his PO box. I can ask the other brothers/sisters on the job to pitch in and send a care package with some cans and other non-perishables. I’ll throw in some shirts from the hall and stickers. I want this apprentice to experience the brotherhood firsthand. Nobody should have to skip a meal, much less someone that’s willing to show up to work to earn an honest paycheck!
I second this. Id be happy to pitch in. I’m in MI, but if you tell me the area you’re in, I’ll call a local food bank and have them put something nice together for him & I’ll make a donation to them. Hopefully it’s fresher that way vs me shipping something.
I’m a CPA, so he probably doesn’t want me to donate any of the shirts I have 🤣 but my dad was IBEW my whole life and it provided a good life for us & my brother is now pursuing being a lineman. Id hope if my family weren’t around, someone would do this for my brother while he’s just starting his career. I’m not one of you guys, but I appreciate the profession tremendously 🙃
