They need to fix the issue first, then they can paint. You rock for trying to help!

Clean off the walls, use a primer that can deflect mold and mildew from returning, then two coats of a paint. Favorite color is Glidden Dover White.

Depending on the type of paint, and how badly the wood is rotting, it might still help a bit. A thick coat of gloss paint would at least seal the mold in.
