Keeping up the appearance of our buildings and facilities is an important component of viable communties. Well-maintained and painted buildings reflect pride in our communities. Through a partnership with Diamond Vogel Paint of Orange City, Iowa groups can receive paint for community enhancement projects. More than 3,000 gallons of paint have been donated to community groups through the Paint Iowa Beautiful program.
If you have leftover paint from your project, contact your local waste authority for information on recycling and disposal programs in your area. Recycle paint and used paint containers wherever possible. Consider donating leftover paint to local organizations which are collecting used paint for work projects.
