Legacy is a charity that provides services to Australian families suffering financially and socially after the passing of a spouse or parent, during or after their defence force service.

As a charity caring for over 90,000 Australians, Legacy provides a wide range of services and in their latest community event Paint for a Mate, QPaint and other tradesmen got together to help transform a home for one lady from Mitchelton.

Paint for a Mate is an Australian wide house painting initiative created by Berger Paints alongside Legacy that lends a helping hand to families and war widows by giving their home a fresh coat of paint and general tidy up.

Mrs Marie Harvey, owner of 22 Woking St, Mitchelton was the recipient of the latest Paint for a Mate makeover which saw local volunteers and a range of Painting and Trades get together to repaint her home.

QPaint Manager Tas Moulis was heavily involved in the painting part of the project and was overjoyed to be part of a great cause, “It’s always great to help out others in need and we’ve always tried our best to help in the community” says Tas.

With the home now repainted, the Paint a Mate campaign now moves onto painting it’s next home in Australia.
