ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – For the past six years, Performance Painting has been awarding paint makeovers to local organizations in need with the Gift of Color project. This year's recipient was S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue.
Saving Animals From Euthanasia Pet Rescue, which is located in St. Augustine, Fla., is a nonprofit animal rescue shelter. It rescues both cats and dogs from facilities and homes that can no longer provide care of the animals. S.A.F.E. is funded by donations and the support of their attached thrift store.

S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue will be painted by Performance Painting Contractors' volunteers on Saturday.
"Being able to give back to my community is something that has always been important to me, which is why I look forward to the Gift of Color each year. It's always a true honor to see the excitement and gratitude of those we help," the owner of Performance Painting Contractors, Jason Parker, said.
The volunteers at S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue focus their efforts on providing a loving home to the animals while they wait for their forever home. Finding homes for these helpless animals is their No. 1 priority. Therefore, the building has not seen a paintbrush in some time. Funds for the organization are limited and paint is at the bottom of its list of needs. Providing the building with the Gift of Color paint makeover is just one way that Performance Painting Contractors plans on giving back. Along with the paint makeover, the Performance Painting team will be presenting S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue with a donation of items that have been collected from the community.
If you would like to contribute to the collection of donated items for S.A.F.E., members of the Performance Painting team can come and collect your items from your place of business and present them on your behalf during the paint makeover. For a scheduled pickup of items, contact Meagan Jarrell at 904-641-4800.
Performance Painting Contractors has opened up the nominations for this year-round event and will be awarding the Gift of Color donation, valued at $7,500, twice a year.
