    PPG completed a COLORFUL COMMUNITIES project in Gravataí, Rio Grande do Sul, that helped revitalize the Vila Neopolis School. The project brought together more than 40 PPG volunteers who spent a day beautifying the sports court, grandstand, hallways, playground and classrooms, attended by nearly 800 students from elementary school.

    PPG provided more than 370 gallons (1,400 liters) of RENNER paint and all painting materials for the project.

    The Colorful Communities program provides PPG volunteers and products to bring color and vitality to Communities where the company operates around the world, such as in Gravataí, where PPG has a manufacturing facility for its architectural coatings products, including Renner paint.

    “We know how color can instantly transform a space in a positive way,” said Marcio Grossmann, PPG president, Latin America south. “Through the Colorful Communities initiative, PPG has been able to bring to life our mission, and bring color and brilliance to communities where we operate.”

    Volunteers painted the facility’s common rooms in a color palette that included red, orange, green, blue and yellow hues. These colors were chosen to create a welcoming and bright space for the students and school employees.

    In a recent survey, PPG confirmed the positive impact color can have on learning environments, serving as a catalyst for student engagement, happiness and empowerment. Nearly 900 U.S. teachers, parents and educational administrators responded to the online survey, with 97 percent of respondents saying colors and decor have a positive impact on student engagement.

    “We believe that paint colors are a powerful tool that can influence emotions and the experience in an environment,” said Grossman. “This is very important in schools, as it can help stimulate learning and the creative development of children and adults.”

    This is the ninth Colorful Communities project in Brazil since the program’s launch in 2015 and the second project in 2019. In the São Paulo state, Colorful Communities projects have helped revitalize the Municipal Early Child Education School Alfredo Castro Donaire, the Volcano Project, the Wadih Jorge Maluf School in Sumaré and the Casa Nazaré in Jundiaí. The Centro de Integração da Criança Especial (Center for the Integration of the Special Children), Instituto do Câncer Infantil (Child Cancer Institute) and the Public School José Maurício in Porto Alegre were also recipients of Colorful Communities projects. In São José dos Pinhais, Paraná, the Lourdes Bonin School gained more color and brightness through the initiative.
