United Way's Day of Caring provides a unique opportunity for caring people all across our community to join forces and reach out in some special way to others in need. We plan to set aside a day to devote our time, energy, resources and skills to others in our community. We will team up and tackle projects across the county that will make a real difference in the lives of our neighbors and we will have fun while we do it!

Family Friendly Managed Projects toolkit has great ideas for inspiring families with a life long love of community!

Projects that benefit local programs will be given extra consideration. We would like to see agencies across the county involved in some way to help make this day a success. Please encourage your staff, board, volunteers and recipients to become involved in any way possible.
