Transforming Communities

Through Let’s Colour community transformation programs we are developing and supporting projects which add color to people’s lives and transform communities – all across the world. Our community projects are inspired by our desire to help children, families and communities who deserve a brighter tomorrow.

We aim to provide opportunities and environments for them to learn, grow and flourish. We’re pleased to have built a long list of more than 2000 Let’s Colour community projects, donating more than 1.3 million liters of paint and we have no intention of slowing down! Take a look through some of the social project ideas and initiatives that we’re proud to have completed.

Let's Colour Kuşadası, Turkey

We have added color to the lives of thousands of people by creating The Colorful Hill right on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea!
This unique project proved the true power of paint, as the transformation left an impact that goes beyond the beautifully painted facades, rooftops, streets & stairs.

SOS Children's Villages partnership

We have partnered with SOS Children's Villages to use education and renovation to drive a positive impact on the issue of youth unemployment. The partnership aims to reach the young people of SOS Children's Villages with our professional training through AkzoNobel's painter academies.

Let's Colour Walls of Connection

We joined forces with MasterPeace to inspire and energize cities around the world, and make them a little more "human". The walls that were once a symbol of separation have become tools for inspiration which connect people and communities.

Unexpected Courts

Transforming underused urban location into sporting courts, just by adding a splash of paint. The program was launched in the famous Santa Marta favela in Rio de Janeiro and soon was spread all over the city.

Creating the largest urban art painting in the world in São Paulo

The aim of the project in São Paulo, Brazil is to deliver 6,000 square meters of urban art painting. Or, in other words, the creation of the largest urban art painting in the world. The idea is to write the words that will raise awareness about water use on the banks of the Tietê River, which is why the entire project will take place in March, alongside the World Water Day. Eduardo Srur, the renowned Brazilian artist, will be responsible for unforgettable urban interventions in the city.
