Day of Caring

Day of Caring is an annual event where hundreds of individuals from organizations across the region come together to support our local community by completing projects such as painting, landscaping, and cleaning for our partner agencies.

This year, over 34 companies participated to complete over 80 service projects for our partner agencies.

To get involved or learn more, please call us at 843-662-2407 or email uwfloinfo@uwflorence.org.

While our 2024 Day of Caring took place on September 20th, please stay tuned for more information on our 2025 event.

Why Get Involved?

Research shows that volunteering in groups not only enhances team spirit but also boosts morale. For businesses, participating in a large-scale community improvement project offers valuable exposure and demonstrates a commitment to corporate social responsibility.

Participants in the Day of Caring leave with a deep sense of pride and a greater appreciation for how the investment of time and resources can create meaningful change—especially when we work together as a community.

How to Get Involved

Gather a team of colleagues, friends, or family, and appoint a team leader to serve as the primary point of contact with United Way of Florence County. The team leader can reach out to us at uwfloinfo@uwflorence.org or by phone at 843-662-2407 to begin the process. We’ll provide all the information and support needed to get you started.

Please note, the purchasing of any necessary supplies for the projects will be the responsibility of the participating team or organization.

What Types of Projects Are Available?

The Day of Caring offers a wide range of projects, from cleaning and construction to painting parties. No matter the type of project you choose, know that the organizations benefiting from your efforts are deeply grateful. Each year, we look forward to fulfilling our “wish lists” and, in doing so, help ensure that valuable resources are directed to our ongoing programs and services.
