The Dream Home Gets a Paint Refresh

By Sylvester Renner | Project Leader

Dear friends

Freetown, where the Dream Home is located, receives a lot of rainfall - with high humidity. The discolored and faded outside walls of the Dream Home were in need of a fresh coat of paint. You can see this in one of the group photos in this report.

Since the last report, this project has raised $50.  These funds were used towards repainting the entire Dream Home at a total cost of around $375 - using a weathershield oil paint.

This paint refresh came at a great time as we were able to do this before the Christmas party - held on December 27th. The building looked fresh and bright as you can see in the party photos.  

Thanks so much for helping to make the building look bright and fresh - uplifting the look and spirits of the kids

We deeply appreciate your support as we work together towards providing a home for these deserving kids.

With great appreciation
Sylvester and the Dream Home Team
