Plumbers and Pipefitters Local 9 was contacted by NJ Senator Patrick J. Diegnan Jr. (D) District 18 to help a South Plainfield family with an important undertaking. On July 8, 2023, Local 9 members successfully removed an old Jacuzzi-type tub and installed a new handicap walk-in tub for a young woman with a rare genetic disorder, Pallister Killian Syndrome.

The members of Local 9 were honored to have taken on this special project to help our neighbors in need. Thank you to Mike Zushma from the Lions Club, who helped donate the tub, Local 9 Member, John Bennett for organizing the installation, and, of course our apprentices, instructors, journeymen and business agent for their hard work on this project!
