Fall 2016 Phoenix New City Painting Blitz

Employees of the law firm Jaburg Wilk participated in New City Phoenix's Fall Painting Blitz. The Barrio Nuevo Program revitalizes and transforms marginalized and under resourced neighborhoods in South Phoenix. This is the fifth house that they have painted.  It was the home of an elderly grandmother and she was excited to have her home freshly painted.  

New City Phoenix,  founded by Dave Bennett, uses community volunteers to paint homes of low income and elderly families in South Phoenix. In just eight years, the organization has painted a total of 141homes. In addition to transforming neighborhoods, the organization helps at risk teens discover their life’s passion through continued learning.
