Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans (MACV) is a nonprofit organization that has been assisting veterans for over 25 years. Each year MAC-V receives more than 25,000 contacts, inquiries, and requests from veterans across the state. Many homeless and veterans’ organizations recognize MAC-V’s transitional and permanent housing programs as a model for the nation. We are excited to be working with Minnesota Assistance Coalition for Veterans (MAC-V) and helping some warriors with painting the interior of building 47 on the campus of the VA Medical center in Minneapolis. This is a follow on mission from the one we did on MLK Day. We will be painting the common areas of both levels to include the office, kitchen, two common living areas and the hallways. If you are not aware, building 47, which from the outside looks like a office building on the VA Campus, is actually sleeping quarters for more than a dozen veterans that are receiving out patient treatment at the VA. MAC-V needs our help in making these quarters more welcoming. We will be painting multiple sleeping quarters along with some common areas. There is plenty to do and need as many volunteers as we can get here.
