A fresh coat of paint can provide a striking and immediate impact. If you have ever painted, you know a little color can breathe new life into fading environments. rejuveNATION, a collaborative social action initiative organized by Surgance, with local and national partners providing the funds and thousands of volunteers providing the fuel, is restoring buildings of community interest in cities all over the nation.
Join the rejuveNATION and watch fading school buildings, declining neighborhoods and historic architecture enjoy new life. By getting involved personally, you may even experience a rejuveNATION within yourself. Expanding beyond the medium of paint to other forms of physical renovation, new projects for 2009 are now developing in the following cities (click on the links to contact the Surgance representative in each city):
