Bright Colours Light Up the Habitat Home

Bright Colours Light Up the Habitat Home

December 30, 2011.  With the year coming to a close there was one more opportunity for the Rotary Club of Alliston to be of service in our local community.  A crew of Rotarians and others assembled at the New Habitat for Humanity build on Dufferin St. to get a jump start on the interior painting.  Three bedrooms, all the ceilings, the hall and the main great room needed paint.  Our job was to bring colour to the house.  Bedrooms for the kids in bright green and "Barbie" pink with a more subtle mauve for the mom.  Each room was attacked by a small team with the new homeowner and her family joining us. By midday, when grandma brought the kids over the bedrooms were mostly done.  A small team of Rotarians returned the next day to paint the hall and the great room.  The building crew were very supportive and appreciated the "leg up" on getting the painting done.  Check the Habitat for Humanity website for details on the official opening in late January.

Thanks to all who came out and helped make this home a reality for the family.
