NATIONAL CHARITABLE PARTNERS

The Alpha Workshops

Benjamin Moore and The Alpha Workshops have been collaborating for decades, driving the mission of the organization to create beauty and change lives. Through vocational training in the decorative arts, Alpha provides individuals with visible or invisible disabilities and vulnerabilities – including HIV/AIDS – structure, creativity and direction to find resilience from within, learn new skills, and move their lives and careers forward. In 2021, we announced the Benjamin Moore “Artisan of the Year,” a recognition given to a member of The Alpha community that embodies the values of The Alpha Workshops. During the course of our work together, Benjamin Moore has provided The Alpha Workshops with more than $500,000 in funding as well as donated paint for the creation of Alpha’s award-winning handmade wallpaper.
