Day of Caring 3

DAY OF CARING

Our Day of Caring is an annual, community-wide volunteer day where individuals from businesses, nonprofits, families, and friend groups come together to support our hometown. On this day, hundreds of people roll up their sleeves to complete service projects for our partner agencies, from painting walls and landscaping grounds to organizing, cleaning, and basic repairs. It’s a day when we focus on “neighbors helping neighbors,” improving nonprofit spaces so they can focus on helping people.

​

At our 2025 event, ​more than 300 volunteers across 31 companies participated to complete over 85 service projects for our partner agencies.
