Painting a brighter future for children's charity
Lending a hand
With a kind donation of their time and skills, the team from Brush Paint Wall prepared a wall for a stunning interior mural and repainted the Variety head office in Port Melbourne.
This was an opportunity to help the Variety team so it could keep doing what it does best – helping children who are sick, disadvantaged or have special needs to live, laugh and learn so they can attain their full potential regardless of ability or background.
“When I first came here and saw the state of the place and how scuffed it was…I saw how we can actually help transform it. It’s an honour to be here helping the charity and giving back what we can as painters.”
Abraham Kourtidis, director, Brush Paint Wall.
Estimated to have last been painted more than 30 years ago, Brush Paint Wall transformed the tired-looking stairwell, reception, kitchen, hallway and storeroom into a more professional-looking space with Dulux Wash&Wear® +PLUS Anti-Scuff and Dulux Professional Interior proudly donated by Dulux.
Once preparations were complete, two artists from Urban Art Australia painted the mural to celebrate Variety's values of equality, community, joy and action as well as capture some of its key programs to embrace and support inclusivity, mobility, and education such as
Individual and community grants for mobility equipment, communication devices, learning aids, and technology,
Supporting talented children with a disability, chronic illness, or financial hardship to further their development,
Educational scholarships,
Kids' events and programs, and
Bicycle donation program, Bikes for Kids.
