The Southern Illinois Construction Advancement Program donated $5,000 to the Carpentry Occupations program at Kaskaskia College.  As part of the recent expansion of KC’s Crisp Technology Center, the carpentry program has demonstrated a need for additional equipment in the program and this donation will help fulfill those equipment demands.  The Southern Illinois Builders Association is a trade association of commercial contractors representing approximately 500 members in the southern 39 counties in Illinois.  A not for profit industry fund entitled SICAP works in conjunction with SIBA to promote safety, training, economic development, construction education, outreach efforts and EEO and diversity initiatives.  SICAP is funded by employer contributions from the Carpenters, Cement Masons, Laborers, Operating Engineers and Painters in Southern Illinois.
