“Without the translation from ESNDC, I would never know about this great program that has helped me so much. Now that I know I am going to spread the word around my community.”

Mai Sia Vang and her mother Dzue Ly have lived on the East Side for more than 15 years. ESNDC staff and volunteers met them going door to door. Housing Program Manager Mai Lor Xiong paid them a one on one visit. Mai helped them apply for A Brush with Kindness and to get free paint donated from Valspar. Together, we were able to scrape, prime, and paint the entire exterior of their home.
