The Pittsburgh Paints Company recently announced it has launched the Colors for Courage program, an employee volunteer-led community that donates paint to families in need.
The first project was held at The Children’s Home of Pittsburgh’s Pediatric Specialty Hospital, where more than 40 employee volunteers used Pittsburgh Paints products and colors to transform the hospital’s Green Unit. In addition to the product donation, Pittsburgh Paints Co. provided a financial contribution of $10,000 to support The Children’s Home.
“We are incredibly grateful to Pittsburgh Paints Co. for sharing their time and creative expertise to brighten our spaces. Their work goes far beyond a fresh coat of paint — it creates a more uplifting environment for the children and families we serve every day,” says Stacy Schesler, CEO, The Children’s Home of Pittsburgh. “Community
partners like Pittsburgh Paints Co. help us continue our mission of providing compassionate, family-centered care and we are honored to have their support.”
Pittsburgh Paints Co. donated the colors Lettuce Alone and Soleil for the project. The company collaborated with Abracadabra Contracting Services to complete the project.
“At Pittsburgh Paints Co., we believe our responsibility goes far beyond the paint we provide and the surfaces we color. The Colors for Courage program is an opportunity for us to stand alongside families at a time when they need it most, and we’re honored to work with The Children’s Home of Pittsburgh,” says Brian Carson, CEO, Pittsburgh Paints Co. “The Pittsburgh community has been our home for generations, and programs like this reflect how Pittsburgh Paints Co. continues to grow—not just as a company, but as a committed neighbor and force for good.”
