The WSPA South Puget Sound Chapter is seeking volunteers to assist with the Paint Tacoma-Pierce Beautiful Project. 

Paint Tacoma-Pierce Beautiful (Tacoma, Washington) organizes volunteer crews to paint the homes of low-income seniors and low-income people with disabilities in Tacoma/Pierce County. During the summer of 2008, more than 1,600 volunteers painted 80 homes.

We are now exploring the possibility of having a WSPA led group commit to painting a home this summer!  Because we are a new group, we would be assigned a smaller, rambler house that is not in need of repair.  The commitment would be 4 hours on a Saturday or Sunday for 3 to 4 weeks.  Pressure washing occurs first, then approximately 2 weeks of drying time, then scraping, then a week later the painting (all dependent on our beautiful Northwest weather, of course).  So, it would be a total commitment of 12 to 16 hours in July and/or August.  Also, it is acceptable for families and friends to participate, as well as children over age 10.
