As part of our outreach program, LOTI is sponsoring a house for Paint-A-Thon 2018 on Saturday August 11.
For this annual charity event, we will paint a senior citizen’s house and help keep them in their home.
We need volunteers to help prep and paint the house.
The location, to be announced, will most likely be located in the city of Minneapolis.
August 12th is the alternate day in case of inclement weather.
If weekdays are an option for you, volunteer to prep the week prior.
