How to Help our Neighbors
After a life of service to others, including children in Romania and widows needing help with their houses, *Sarah is hoping volunteers will come to paint her home. Her husband, a minister, had a final wish before he died, and that was to have their house painted. We need volunteers to help fulfill his final dream!
*Ann is a South Tacoma homeowner who raised 3 children while working as a waitress, and is now raising her 14-year-old grandson. Another great local organization, Rebuilding Together South Sound, is providing her with free home repairs. Volunteers who choose this house will be part of helping this family in multiple ways!
After years of service to his country, *Jamal, a disabled veteran, has been waiting for two years for a group of volunteers to help him. As a single dad of three children, it would mean a great deal to the family to have their home painted. Will you be the ones?
These are just three of the homeowners who are hoping to have their homes painted through the generosity of volunteers and the Paint Tacoma-Pierce Beautiful (PTPB) program. The program, in its 34th year, has helped beautify the homes of over 2,200 residents of our community.
Volunteering is easy: we have opportunities for one-day projects or multiple days beautifying a home from start to finish (scrape, pressure wash, prime, paint). PTPB supplies all the materials needed for the volunteers. For more information and to sign up as an individual or crew, please visit our website, www.paintbeautiful.org.
