A gallon of fresh paint can go a long way in beautifying a community.
In fact, 52 total projects will be executed by 39 different groups across the state of Oklahoma during this year’s Fresh Paint Days, a program founded on the collaboration between H-I-S Coatings, with the help of additional sponsors, and Keep America Beautiful state affiliate Keep Oklahoma Beautiful (KOB).
Fresh Paint Days is designed to encourage volunteers to seek out community structures and renovate them with the creative use of resources. Keep Oklahoma Beautiful provides the paint and a stipend for supplies; selected communities supply the volunteers and elbow grease. This program has helped to revitalize communities across Oklahoma with a fresh coat of paint.
