HELPFUL HANDS FOR LOCAL HIGH SCHOOLS!

Ace’s Helpful Hands Program is Providing Paint Makeovers to 50 High Schools Across the U.S

A new coat of paint can mean many things, but at a school it can be the difference between

inspiration and apathy. An engaging learning environment can stir creativity, motivate learning

and invigorate everyone who steps foot on campus. Such physical improvements sometimes

fall by the wayside, but with a helpful hand from the Helpful Hands Program, 50 high school

campuses across America are getting the fresh start they need.

Helpful Hands will be providing paint makeovers to one deserving high school in each of the

fifty states. From Alaska to Texas, high school students and community members around the

country will soon discover that a new coat of paint does more than add color to the wall – it

marks a new beginning, boosts spirits and establishes pride where it is needed the most.
