We Have a Winner! MOCHA Is Our 11th Project Color Painting for Charity Recipient

As you know if you follow our Facebook page or have joined our email list, our 11th Annual Project Color Painting for Charity recipient has been chosen.

In case you’re just coming across this article now and are a little light on the back story, be sure to check out this explanation of what Project Color is and why it means so much to us.

The short version is that we choose a nonprofit each year to receive up to $10,000 of free painting services; it’s our way of giving back and encouraging those who do so much and often receive little help and recognition. As a local Oakland painting company, we also truly believe it is our responsibility to build into and invest in our community.

Thank You for Your Votes!

We shared our final three recipients with you (the general public), and the votes came flooding in. It was a hugely successful process, and we couldn’t be more grateful for your involvement and interest. Posts on Facebook were shared, encouragement was sent, and your voices were all heard.

MOCHA was the clear winner, and we are thrilled to serve them in this way.

What Is MOCHA?

The MOCHA acronym stands for Museum of Children’s Arts, and the organization itself stands for kids and community. Specifically, they believe in the cathartic power of artistic expression, and that making opportunities for kids to experience art will help to heal and prevent social ills. This is a tangible way to bring kids and families together.

MOCHA has impacted over one million children since their launch 27 years ago, holding hands-on arts programs in local schools, libraries, and in their own studios. It is an incredible organization, and one that we extremely proud and excited to help.

What’s Next for This Oakland Painting Project?

We’re in the planning and scheduling stages now, as we want to optimize our impact for MOCHA just as powerfully as possible. Stay tuned for details! And, if you don’t follow us on Facebook, now would certainly be a good time to start.

There are exciting times ahead!

Customer Reviews

“We just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the work of MB Jessee Painting and your employees. Everything turned out beautiful. Our foreman was great! He was punctual, professional, neat and very accommodating ... and went the extra mile. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family.”

— Michelle & Rivers Gee

“M.B. Jessee painted the exterior of my Spanish house over 9 years ago, and they did such an incredible job that they are still getting referrals from me today. The paint is holding up perfectly -- there is absolutely no peeling chipping or any other deterioration. I still remember that my final walk-through list consisted of items written on one side of a 3x5 index card (and I'm REAL picky about my house!) However, when Matt and I did that walk-through over HALF the items were no longer an issue, as his team had noticed them first and they had already been resolved.”

— JoAnn Newcomb

“The completed 'Client Satisfaction Survey' we sent in only modestly reflects our total satisfaction with the work. As a retired small business owner, I compliment you on setting 'best practices' that are consistently followed. Everything described in your marketing materials was a reality! The crew is a super bowl team and our neighbors commented on how quiet they were. We are very happy to be a client of MB Jessee.”

“I just wanted to thank you all for doing such a phenomenal job on our recent house painting. We are very happy with the outcome and can't say enough good things about the crew. Everyone working on the project was outstanding and made it a great experience. Thanks to everyone.”

“The finish on my kitchen cabinets had failed, becoming tacky and grimy around the handles. M B Jessee gave me a reasonable quote, far below some others, and did an outstanding job, striping the original varnish and refinishing with a new lacquer finish. The cabinets look like new. Work was done 1 day faster than estimated. The crew was extremely hard-working, considerate, and neat. Highly recommend M B Jessee.”

“Today I received a beautiful bouquet from your company. It was totally unexpected and very much appreciated--a lovely surprise. Also today, your crew finished my job. I am so pleased with all their fine work. Richard is absolutely amazing and a total delight to work with. He was also extremely helpful during the paint color process. The interior work in my home far exceeded my expectations. A big thank you to you and the crew for an outstanding job. Thank you, thank you for a terrific job!”

“Just wanted to let you know that the crew was great to have around the house for the past two weeks. All three of them were professional, courteous, and attentive to my thoughts/concerns and were extremely knowledgeable. They paid great attention to the detail and it shows.”

— Mark & Roberta Gross

“Many thanks to Rigoberto and Damon and the extraordinary team who transformed my castle in the skies.They are magicians. I appreciate their work very much.”

“Charles finished yesterday and did a fantastic job. We really enjoyed meeting Charles and having him in our home. He is a great guy in addition to his attention to detail in his work, the protection of our floors, walls and furnishings, and his overall interaction with us both. I would be pleased to recommend him to any of my clients.”

“The painters at MB Jesse are top notch! Cesar's team was super friendly and helpful. They were very polite and accommodating. Their expertise in everything painting related was evident in their attention to detail and efficiency painting tricky spaces. The apartment looks brand new!”

— Adam Swisher

“In all the years I've worked with MB Jessee, I'm always so impressed by your crews. They are so respectful of everything--you never even know they're there! Except that the paint looks amazing when they're gone. We've had one showing of our home and already have an offer. I'm sure it is because the paint looks so beautiful.”

— Erin T.

“I loved working with M.B. Jessee from start to finish on a relatively small paint job that grew a bit. I felt in very good hands from the moment Matt Jessee came out to give me the estimate and talk about my job. He was very easy to talk to and he handled my changes very well. Then the actual work done by Rigoberto and Mario was impeccable. They were neat and meticulous and the paint job looks beautiful. I could not have asked for more and when I did, they accommodated me 100%. I will not hesitate to call M.B. Jessee again and to refer them to friends.”
