Just in time for fall, Advantis Credit Union has helped spruce up some Portland-area homes during the REACH Community Development Paint-and-Repair-A-Thon.

Twelve credit union volunteers swung hammers and splashed paint brushes, upgrading the homes of low-income seniors and disabled.

An annual event, REACH Paint-and-Repair-A-Thon guarantees each home is spiffed up with individual attention-upgrades include painting homes inside and out, yard maintenance and basic home repairs.
