Paint The Town
Give Back Cincinnati's ninth annual Paint the Town came to two neighborhoods, Avondale and Evanston, on Saturday, July 10, 2010 (due to original date, June 12th being rained out).
Dear Paint the Town volunteers,
PTT 2010 pictures can be found on our Facebook page @ http://www.facebook.com/paintthetowncincinnati?v=photos&sb=0
A big, heartfelt thank you for your hard work and dedication at Paint the Town from the Paint the Town planning committee and team leads, Give Back Cincinnati, the community councils of Avondale and Evanston, and almost 60 families in Evanston and Avondale.
We especially appreciate your efforts knowing that, due to our original date being rained out, it was the second Saturday in a month many of you have put aside other plans to take part in Paint the Town.
Paint the Town is a daylong event that engages more than 1,000 volunteers to rejuvenate homes in need of a little TLC. Painting a mass of homes in a concentrated area can truly serve as a catalyst to lift up a community.
Neighborhoods are chosen according to need, and qualified homeowners are encouraged to apply for the service. Community groups are instrumental in spreading the word about Paint the Town.
Volunteers work in teams led by experienced team leaders to paint a house. If needed, houses are prepped for painting prior to the day of the event.
Volunteers are provided with breakfast, lunch, drinking water, a team T-shirt, and painting supplies. Volunteer sign-ups will take place in spring 2010.
Paint the Town has painted a total of 212 houses (as of 2009) in the communities of College Hill, East End, Price Hill, Northside, Madisonville, Hartwell/Carthage and Covington ... and we're just getting started.
