Mrs. Dorothy is a sweet elderly woman, (74), who wants her house painted but doesn't have the physical ability or financial means to have it done. She purchased the exterior paint for her house and is hoping volunteers will bless her by painting her small 800 sq ft house. It will require to be pressure washed before being painted. She also showed me the paint on the inside of her house is in a bad state and she hopes for it all to be one color. She will buy the paint if a team of volunteers will paint the inside. This project is to pressure wash and paint the outside of her house. If a group wants to go beyond that and paint the inside or if your team would rather paint the inside instead that would be a blessing. Here is a video of Luke talking about the project and Dorothy introducing herself.

This elderly couples home was flooded and they have been blessed with the help to restore their home but they are still in need. Their bedroom wall is in need of sheetrock after being stripped from the flood damage. They don't have central AC but wall units and because not having a wall the rooms temperature get's too cold and they sleep in a different room on their sofa and recliner. All they need is the installation of sheetrock of their bedroom wall with a AC wall unit. The work for this project is the install sheetrock to the lower half of their bedroom wall, paint the wall with white paint, sweep and mop the floor. Estimated 3 volunteers can complete in 4 hours.

City code enforcement told Miss Cara that her oak tree needs to be cut back, away from the sidewalk. She lost her job and was told to cut back the tree would be $1,000. She told me, with a heavy heart, that her home is know for having two different colors and is a landmark as the two toned house when given directions. She would love for that to be changed her home to be painted. For this project the yard will need extensive cleaning to be completed before the house is painted at a later date. All items going to the trash can be gathered and placed along the street for pickup, there will need to be 3 separate piles (anything not going to the street will be marked by the owner ). 1. debris 2. trash bags with weeds and trimmings 3. Large tree trimmings. The yard clean up along the fence should include weed whacking (2 weed whackers minimum) small invasive trees/shrubs to be cut away from the fence and house (several large pruners and small chain saw will be needed. The tree has very large branches hanging down blocking the sidewalk and yard, the large branches can be cut back a little at a time using a power pole chain saw keeping volunteers safe. (no ladder is needed as these branches hang very low) I would have 2 chain saws for cutting the branches into smaller pieces. A wheel barrel will make it easier to haul the wood to the street. This house should be primed first before painting. I am sure any neutral color that SCTB has would work. Yard work will take estimated 8-10 volunteers 4-5 hours and painting the house will take 8-10 volunteers 5-6 hours.

For this project the small bathroom needs painting, Mary wants one wall in the bedroom and one wall in the living room to be painted, Mary had a sample of the paint. I would recommend painting all walls in the front room as the new paint won't match the existing even though the paint will be new. Mary would like the inside cleaned and dusted. It is currently in good condition but since her back injury these things have not been cleaned. Cleaning would include mopping floors, vacuuming all carpet and dusting ceiling fans, framed wall pictures, tables etc.. The sink sprayer needs a better sprayer there is water going to the sprayer but will not spray. Mary can pay for paint and sink sprayer. Estimated 4 volunteers 4-5 hours to complete.

There are lots of empty planters/pots that she would like to have placed in one spot, there are many places in the back yard. I suggest flipping them over to eliminate mosquito breeding.

If the yard and plants are the only things completed for this project Jeanie will be very grateful! Labor— 4 volunteers for the yard and 2 for the deck.
