With the HCBA Bar year already more than halfway over , the Community Services Committee is hard at work in planning upcoming community service events . The next spring-time event , Paint Your Heart out Tampa ( PYHoT ), is scheduled for Saturday , April 26 . This will be our third year as a Committee participating with PYHoT , which is a great team-building event .

For those unfamiliar with PYHoT , it is a non-profit that has served the Tampa Bay Area for several decades by painting in-need elderly residents ’ homes , giving these sweet seniors ’ homes a fresh ,

vibrant new look . This is a one-day event that usually lasts from the morning into the afternoon , and no painting skills are required ! While the non-profit provides the paint , we are always in need of items such as painter ’ s tape , step ladders , jugs / trays to hold paint , paint rollers , paint brushes ( various sizes are fine ), and trash bags , to name a few of the supplies we will use . Please be on the lookout for the HCBA event announcements regarding signing up and donation
information for paint day . Your help is much appreciated .
I like the name “ Paint Your Heart out Tampa ,” as the word “ Heart ” in the title stands out to me . Paint by itself is just paint , but paint used by a painter who paints from the heart is so much more . We would love to have you join us this year . n
