Join us for Day of Caring on Saturday, October 11, 2025, for a day of service, connection, and community impact! 

Mobilizing the caring power of our community

 

This year, we are proud to relaunch Day of Caring as a single-day, community-centered event. After two years of Week of Caring, this year’s format returns to a focused, public-facing activation designed to engage volunteers, partners, and the broader community in meaningful service. The event will showcase United Way’s year-round programs and offer opportunities for hands-on service, storytelling, and community empowerment.
