“My Paint The Town™ team painted my house and changed the entire vibe of the home I once shared with my husband. I truly didn’t know if I would ever be happy again after his death…They fixed damages on the outside of my house that transformed a house in need of TLC, into one that is beautiful and welcoming. They gave me some of my pride back and helped me realize it was time to start a new chapter in my life.” – Sandi, Paint The Town™ recipient

“We decided to apply after seeing what had been done in the area by PTT. I love the whole concept of PTT. Making the people who can’t do it for themselves feel good about having something new and bright to come home to, it’s amazing. There are so many here who came out to help and they’ve done such an incredible job! They have done so much more than just paint.”-Charlotte, Paint The Town™ recipient

“I honestly believe Paint The Town™ has made me a better person and leader (and maybe a better painter). It is so incredible to see the finished product, and the look on the owner’s face always brings tears to my eyes.  I am thankful Paint The Town™ exists. Thank you to NeighborWorks® Boise for coordinating such an amazing program for our community.” -Julie Schott, Paint The Town™ volunteer

FAQ's for Teams

Yes. However, we will require new teams to participate in training to help ensure quality standards are met.

FAQ's for Residents

  • Staff receives and reviews Paint The Town™ application for completeness and income qualification. Each homeowner’s circumstances are considered on a case-by-case basis.
  • Staff and volunteers conduct interviews.
  • Homes are chosen for evaluation and lead testing in April. (We cannot paint lead-positive homes for safety reasons)
  • Interviews and paint evaluation do not guarantee your home will be painted. They are a part of the selection process.

Homes and volunteer teams are selected and matched in May.
