BUY BOOKS FOR KIDS CHALLENGE: Building the Next Generation of the Trades 

MCABC is excited to launch the Buy Books for Kids Challenge, an initiative that brings Susie’s Shed into classrooms, organizations and communities across British Columbia. Susie’s Shed was written to engage with younger generations and help debunk the myth that girls don’t build. Construction is an amazing career choice for everyone who enjoys working with their hands.  

MCABC is challenging our member companies to sponsor book packages of 50,100,150 or 200 copies of Susie’s Shed for MCABC to distribute across the province. By sponsoring book packages, you’ll help introduce young minds to the world of mechanical contracting and the skilled trades – inspiring the next generation of trades professionals.
