My name is Aaron, and plumbing saved my life. Years ago, I was headed down a dangerous path, but after surviving being shot multiple times, I was given a second chance. Plumbing became my way out—a trade that gave me purpose, discipline, and a way to help others. Now, I want to pay that forward with my Free Plumbing Tour Across America.

On this journey, I’m providing free plumbing services to veterans, single parents, people with disabilities, and families struggling with housing issues. I’ve already seen the impact this can have: I once helped a single mom of three whose water heater had gone out. She’d been heating pots of water on the stove just so her kids could take warm baths. When I installed a new water heater and she saw hot water running again, she broke down in tears, saying it felt like a weight was lifted off her shoulders. That’s the kind of relief I want to bring to families all over the country.

This tour isn’t easy. I’ll be facing challenges like travel costs, expensive parts, and finding the families who need help most. I’ll rely on community outreach and recommendations to reach those who’ve been overlooked. Every donation goes directly toward parts, tools, and travel so I can keep showing up for the people who need it most. I’ll be livestreaming the journey so you can watch lives being changed in real time—and know that you helped make it happen. Plumbing gave me a second chance, and with your support, I can give that hope to others.
