Milwaukee Tool Supports Building Pathways

Roxbury, MA – Milwaukee Tool, delivering innovative solutions to the professional construction trades that offer increased productivity and unmatched durability, announced it recently supported Building Pathways’ Pre-Apprenticeship Program with hands on training for its latest class and a donation of $5,000 in tools to support the program.

Alex Grandy, regional manager, jobsite solutions at Milwaukee Tool, said he is looking forward to continuing to grow this partnership with Building Pathways, and seeing the students’ careers grow through the union trades in Boston.

Based in Roxbury, Building Pathways creates opportunities for low-income area residents, particularly in underserved communities, to access and prepare for building trades apprenticeships and family-sustaining careers in the construction industry. The Building Pathways Building Trades Pre-Apprenticeship Program was launched in 2011 by the Building and Construction Trades Council of the Metropolitan District (MetroBTC) to address the continued disparities in apprenticeship for women, people of color, and other underserved communities.
