Project snapshot

I, Donald Reith, own the veteran small business The Appeal To Safety LLC, with over 25 years in the construction industry. I’ve worked 17 years as a Local 46 Ironworker and seven years as a licensed Concrete Safety Manager. My experience includes large projects like Water Tunnel #3 and the Freedom Tower. My goal is to use grant funds to help youth in Rockaway Park and Far Rockaway secure well-paying construction jobs. We’ll provide certifications like OSHA 40, Flagger, and Fireguard.
