Happy belated 4th of JULY!!!

 

Paint the Town - the Sequel - JULY 10th!!!!

 

Paint the Town is THIS SATURDAY!!! we need your help!!

We are painting 58 homes and all hands are needed.  Our first attempt on June 12th was rained out, hence we are heading back this weekend.  Many volunteers have signed up, but our numbers are not what they were the first go around. We will get this project completed, but we need everyone that is available on Saturday. Food, fun, and a great sense of accomplishment are all included!! Get the word out, bring friends, bring family, bring that friend who watches Sports Center all day long on Saturdays.  This event changes an entire community and will be fun for all.

To volunteer for Paint the Town, please register here:

Kids' Olympics

 

Here is a great chance to give back to our next generation. 

We have planned a great day with local children playing a plethora of different activities: kickball, balloon toss, freeze tag, arts/crafts, dodge ball, basketball, and more!!!

 

The event will be the morning and early afternoon on Saturday July 17th.

Now we need your help with all of this fun!!

 

Register now for the event!

 

The Give Back Cincinnati Challenge

 

Feeling a little competitive?  Ready to show your non-painting skills off to the rest of Give Back? 

The Kids get their Olympics first... then it is our turn to just have fun.  An afternoon long competition for six member teams which will involve volleyball, cornhole, golf, relay races and trivia has been organized for your enjoyment.

 

Saturday July 31st from 12:30 to 5:00, you will have your chance to have your name etched in Give Back history.   Bragging rights will not be the only reward though as we will have t-shirts, food, and prizes for the victors. 

Registration is expected to fill up.  Spaces are limited so buy your ticket ASAP!! $5.00 reserves your spot.  You do not need your team lined up yet or a team at all as we can pair up teams day of.  Register today!!

 

Register now for the Challenge!

 

 On the Horizon....

 

The Christian Moerlein Brewing Co. OTR Makeover -  August 21st:   Give Back Cincinnati has always found itself working in Over-the-Rhine at least once a year, now we have an entire event dedicated to the area this year!!  Many different projects are being planned throughout the entire community.  This will be a great event with something for everyone.
