ORGANIZATION: Compass Family Services

Compass Main Logo

Help Compass Family Services paint the main hallway that leads to our housing program's offices (Compass SF HOME). Volunteer will help us complete the map of the San Francisco Bay area by painting in missing districts and empty spaces so that families can see where they might be moving to once they secure a home. Experience with basic painting is a plus. Must be willing to work independently and take initiative. We will provide all the necessary materials, but need your creativity and vision!

Time: During normal business hours, hours are dependent on volunteer availability. We’re looking for someone who can make this project "theirs" and devote the time needed to complete the whole thing - probably ~4-8 hrs, which could be all at once or spread over a few weeks.
