The Global paint for Charity was originally started in 2010, incorporated in Georgia in 2011 and federally recognized as a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization in 2012. Its mission is to collect leftover architectural paint from residences and businesses nationwide for use in global housing rehabilitation projects, including homes, schools, hospitals, orphanages and churches for vulnerable families in developing countries. The Global Paint for Charity has a passion for people, paint and the environment. Together we will reduce waste, protect the environment, provide paint to vulnerable populations and paint the world in lasting color.
