Bonus: Student-led painting days (two Sundays of community effort and joy)

Why We’re Asking

We’re nearly there. After months of careful planning, the new BGMS premises is ready for its final coat—literally. The internal walls are MDF, and before we move fully in, we’d love to give the space a fresh coat of paint to brighten the environment for learning, building, and sharing.

Many of you have asked how you can help. This is it.

What the Funds Will Cover

• Paint: Durable, low-VOC white and neutral tones for a bright, clean look

• Primers and sealers: To protect the MDF and ensure longevity

• Brushes, rollers, drop cloths, trays, and sundries

• Snacks and drinks for volunteers helping on the painting days

Any leftover funds will go toward finishing touches—maybe some acoustic wall panels or signage.

How You Can Help

1. Contribute what you can. Every donation helps, no matter the size.

2. Volunteer to paint! We’ll be running two Sunday sessions where students can help transform the space together.

3. Spread the word—if someone in your life believes in what we do, let them know.

What This Means

This isn’t just about paint. It’s about ownership of the space, and building something together. Whether you’re new to BGMS or have been part of our journey for years, this is a chance to leave your mark—quietly, with a roller.

Let’s colour the next chapter of BGMS, together.
