Donate

There are four ways to donate: 1) money, 2) goods, 3) sponsoring a home, and of course, 4) donating your time. See the Volunteer section for information about what you can do before and at an event. Goods may include tools, paint or building supplies, food or beverages for volunteers, plants for landscaping, office supplies for registration and management, vehicles for hauling refuse and materials, or services, such as professional construction, recordkeeping, or catering. A very personal way to donate is for your organization to raise funds and work parties to dedicate to a particular home. To donate now, contact the Project Manager (gizmopennington at cox dot net).

Volunteer

Your San Diego neighbors and the FaceLift project need eager painters, planters, cleaners, scrubbers, and picker-uppers. Your energy and enthusiasm can make a difference. You get the pleasure of working with a fun team and seeing your hard work have immediate results to homes and neighborhoods.


Download the waiver and bring it in when you register, or fill it out at the registration desk. Volunteers under the age of 18 will need the signature of a parent or guardian.
Contact the Project Manager (gizmopennington at cox dot net) for more information on volunteering for yourself, your family, or your organization.
