“By combining PPG’s resources, our employees’ volunteer spirit, and the creativity of local partners, we not only repaired flood damage but created a more inspiring environment where children can grow, learn and thrive,” said Dębowski.
From renovating the school’s basement to rebuilding the outdoor area that is central to the school’s community events, the team used paint products fit for a preschool with features like scrub resistance and excellent coverage.
Meanwhile, artist Rafał Kłosiński together with volunteers created a mural along the fence, depicting the lower sections of trees that seamlessly align with the trunks and foliage behind the fence to form the illusion of a complete forest. Volunteers also revitalized the sensory path, restored and replanted the gardens, repainted indoor and outdoor furniture and fences, and renovated a pergola to provide shade for outdoor activities.
“On behalf of the town of Lewin Brzeski, I would like to thank PPG for its partnership in our community, as well as the volunteers for their contribution and for sharing what is most precious – their hearts,” said Artur Kotara, Mayor of Lewin Brzeski. “This initiative marked the culmination of renovation work at the facility after the flood, truly the ‘icing on the cake.’ Thanks to this effort, children can now return to learning activities in spaces that are not only renovated, but also colorful, creative and welcoming.”
ThisColorful Communities project is one of 10 global flagship projects in 2025 celebrating the 10-year milestone of PPG’sColorful Communities program. Learn more about the program.
