WKU's Project Transform theme involves the kickoff of Habitat for Humanity's program titled, A Brush with Kindness. It includes a week–long project to meet the home improvement needs of one or more families in the Bowling Green area. Through this project, students, faculty, staff, and community members will come together to  provide exterior home improvements to local low-income homeowners.

Volunteers:

Five families will receive A Brush with Kindness beginning April 23rd, and these projects can only be successful with the help of volunteers. Up to 300 volunteers will be needed from April 23rd-27th. If you are interested in volunteering, please complete the form below. If you would like to sign up a group of volunteers, please call us at 270-782-0082.
