Int. Women’s Day

Posted March 10, 2023

Dear members of Local 507 Members,

March 8, 2023, was International Women’s Day, and we want to honor our local female members.

We were able to speak with Elvia Catrino; read her message below:

Elvia Catarino – Local 507 – Commercial Painter – Magnum Drywall

Additionally, if you know of any women interested in joining the union, please have them call the Local at 4089-824-1280.
