Metro Paint-A-Thon

Volunteer Teams

Metro Paint-A-Thon needs volunteer teams from corporations, congregations, and civic groups to paint the homes of low-income seniors and people with disabilities living in the seven-county metro area. Teams range in size from 10 to 40 members depending upon the size of the house. Generally, the time commitment involves two or three days of scraping and priming, in addition to the paint weekend. Most teams that have prepped their home in advance finish their painting in one day.

Teams are assigned to a house based on the number of team members, and their preference for house size and location. Paint-A-Thon not only matches teams with a home, but provides all the necessary paint, many paint supplies, and all the guidance and technical advice a team needs to have a fantastic volunteer experience.

To organize a volunteer team, contact Paint-A-Thon director Deidre Pope at 612-721-8687, ext. 321.
