Twice a year iACT's Hands on Housing program provides free painting and minor home repair to 10 different low-income, elderly, and/or disabled homeowners throughout Austin. This biannual event is entirely volunteer powered, so we need you! No experience or expertise of any kind is needed. If you are interested in volunteering to paint on Saturday, April 4 between the hours of 9am-5pm, please email hoh@interfaithtexas.org. You will then be assigned a home address and be sent a form to fill out. Please feel free to direct any questions to hoh@interfaithtexas.org. A free lunch will be provided for all volunteers. We hope to see you out there!

Mission Statement
iACT cultivates peace and respect through interfaith dialogue, service and celebration.
Description
iACT's mission is to cultivate peace and respect through interfaith service, celebration, and dialogue. This mission is realized every day through our three programs: Red Bench, iACT for Refugees, and Hands on Housing.
iACT for Refugees: The only federally approved program providing ESL and cultural orientation classes to newly arrived refugees in the Austin area.
Red Bench: This dialogue series fosters unity by allowing people to meet others from different faith backgrounds, discover shared values and find common ground.
Hands on Housing: Austin's largest volunteer-based housing rehabilitation program provides critical home repairs to impoverished senior citizens, disabled individuals, and single parent households.
iACT also hosts several celebrations throughout the year, including the Hope Awards, A Night Under One Sky, and the Interfaith Day of Thanks Service and Celebration.
